Water Temperature in Kurzeme Planning Region: General Trends and Swimming Opportunities

Original name of the region: Kurzemes reģions

The Kurzeme Planning Region in Latvia has a long coastline along the Baltic Sea, where water temperatures vary significantly throughout the year due to the region’s temperate maritime climate. During winter, sea temperatures along the Kurzeme coast, including areas like Liepāja and Ventspils, drop to around 1°C to 3°C (34°F to 37°F). In the coldest months, parts of the coastline may experience ice formation, especially in sheltered bays, making swimming nearly impossible.

As the weather warms in spring and summer, sea temperatures gradually rise. By June, the water usually reaches around 12°C to 15°C (54°F to 59°F), becoming more suitable for water activities. The warmest period is typically in July and August, when the Baltic Sea along Kurzeme’s shores can reach 17°C to 20°C (63°F to 68°F), particularly in shallower coastal areas. These temperatures make swimming possible, though still refreshing compared to more southern seas. However, the influence of wind and currents can cause sudden temperature drops, especially after strong offshore winds.

Despite the relatively cool water, the Kurzeme coastline is popular for beachgoers, surfers, and nature enthusiasts. The combination of sandy beaches, dunes, and rugged cliffs creates an inviting atmosphere, even if the sea remains brisk year-round. The Baltic’s cooler waters also contribute to a rich marine ecosystem, supporting fishing and other coastal activities that define the region’s relationship with the sea.
