Water Temperature in Kalmykia: General Trends and Swimming Opportunities

Original name of the region: Калмыкия

Kalmykia, located in the southern part of European Russia, has a predominantly arid and semi-arid climate, which impacts the water temperatures in its rivers and lakes. The region is known for its steppe landscapes and its proximity to the Caspian Sea. During the summer months, from June to August, the water temperatures in the region's rivers and lakes can reach relatively warm levels. For example, the water in the Volga River, which runs through the northern part of Kalmykia, typically ranges from 20°C to 25°C (68°F to 77°F), making it suitable for swimming and water activities. The smaller lakes in Kalmykia, like Lake Manych, also see similar temperatures, providing a comfortable environment for recreational activities.

In autumn, the temperatures begin to cool down gradually. By September and October, the water in the rivers and lakes drops to around 15°C to 18°C (59°F to 64°F), making swimming less appealing, although water activities like fishing can still be enjoyed. By winter, from December to February, the temperatures in rivers and lakes continue to drop significantly, with water temperatures nearing 0°C (32°F), especially in the smaller, shallow lakes. This can result in the freezing of certain lakes, allowing for ice-related activities such as ice fishing or skating.

As spring arrives, the water temperatures in Kalmykia’s rivers and lakes begin to rise again. By late May, the temperatures in lakes and rivers may reach around 12°C to 18°C (54°F to 64°F), signaling the start of a more favorable season for water-based activities. However, due to the overall hot and dry climate of the region, the summer months remain the most popular for enjoying the warmer waters.
