Water Temperature in Salacgrīva Municipality: General Trends and Swimming Opportunities

Original name of the region: Salacgrīvas novads

Salacgrīva Municipality, located along the northern coast of Latvia, borders the Gulf of Riga, where water temperatures change significantly with the seasons. In winter, the sea temperature drops to around 0°C to 2°C (32°F to 36°F), and ice often forms along the shoreline, particularly in sheltered areas. The cold waters make swimming impossible, but the frozen coastline can attract winter walkers and nature enthusiasts.

As spring progresses, the sea begins to warm, reaching about 8°C to 12°C (46°F to 54°F) by late May. The peak summer months of July and August bring the warmest water temperatures, typically ranging from 16°C to 20°C (61°F to 68°F). In shallow coastal areas, especially near beaches, temperatures can occasionally rise above 21°C (70°F) on hot days. However, strong offshore winds can cause sudden upwelling, bringing colder water to the surface and temporarily lowering temperatures.

Salacgrīva’s coastal waters are known for their relatively calm conditions due to the shelter provided by the Gulf of Riga. This makes the area suitable for swimming, fishing, and boating during summer. While the water remains cooler compared to southern European seas, it offers a refreshing escape in warm weather, especially for those who enjoy the natural beauty of the region’s sandy beaches and coastal forests.
