Original name of the region: Västernorrlands län
Västernorrland County, located along the northern coast of Sweden, experiences a cold temperate climate influenced by the Baltic Sea. Due to its northern location, the region sees significant variation in water temperatures across the seasons. In winter, from December to February, the sea temperature typically hovers around 0°C to 3°C (32°F to 37°F). This makes the waters icy and unsuitable for swimming, as the cold temperatures dominate the region during these months.
As spring arrives, temperatures gradually begin to rise, though the water remains quite cold. In March and April, the sea temperature typically ranges from 1°C to 5°C (34°F to 41°F), and it is still far too cold for casual swimming. By May, the water temperature starts to increase slightly, ranging from 5°C to 9°C (41°F to 48°F), still making it too cold for most people to enjoy swimming without wetsuits or thermal protection.
During the summer months, particularly in July and August, the water temperature reaches its highest point but remains on the cooler side compared to southern parts of Sweden. The sea temperature generally fluctuates between 12°C to 15°C (54°F to 59°F), making it comfortable for short swims or water activities for those who are accustomed to colder waters. The cooler waters make Västernorrland less popular for swimming compared to other regions, but the natural beauty and calmness of the coastal areas still attract many visitors. As autumn approaches, the water temperature begins to drop again, signaling the end of the swimming season.
