Water Temperature in Andalusia: General Trends and Swimming Opportunities

Original name of the region: Andalucía

Andalusia, located in southern Spain, has a diverse range of water bodies, including the Mediterranean Sea, the Atlantic Ocean, as well as rivers and lakes. Along the Mediterranean coast, in areas such as Málaga and Almería, sea temperatures range from around 14–16°C (57–61°F) in winter to 22–26°C (72–79°F) in summer, making it comfortable for swimming for much of the year. On the Atlantic coast, near Cádiz and Huelva, the water tends to be cooler, with summer temperatures typically between 18–22°C (64–72°F), influenced by ocean currents.

Inland, Andalusia is home to several rivers, including the Guadalquivir, which flows through Seville, and the Genil. River temperatures vary significantly depending on the season and altitude. In winter, many rivers drop to around 8–12°C (46–54°F), while in summer, some can warm up to 18–22°C (64–72°F), though mountain-fed streams remain much cooler. Lakes and reservoirs, such as Embalse de Iznájar and Embalse del Chorro, provide excellent swimming spots, especially in summer when surface temperatures reach 22–26°C (72–79°F), making them popular for both locals and tourists.

As autumn arrives, sea and lake temperatures gradually decline, though the Mediterranean remains relatively warm until late October. The best time for swimming along the coast is from June to September, while inland lakes are most enjoyable in mid-to-late summer. With its mix of coastal and freshwater options, Andalusia offers a variety of swimming experiences, from relaxing beach days to refreshing dips in mountain lakes and reservoirs.
