Water Temperature Trends

Balıkesir Province, located in the northwest of Turkey, has a coastline along both the Sea of Marmara and the Aegean Sea. The water temperatures along its coast vary throughout the year, with the Sea of Marmara generally being cooler than the Aegean. During the winter months, from December to February, the sea temperatures in Balıkesir are relatively chilly, with the Sea of Marmara averaging between 7°C and 9°C (45°F to 48°F) and the Aegean slightly warmer, ranging from 9°C to 12°C (48°F to 54°F). These cooler temperatures make swimming and other water activities less appealing, though the region’s natural beauty continues to attract visitors.

As spring approaches, from March to May, the water temperatures in Balıkesir gradually rise. The Sea of Marmara sees temperatures ranging from 10°C to 14°C (50°F to 57°F), while the Aegean warms up more quickly, reaching between 14°C and 18°C (57°F to 64°F). The warming waters make the region more inviting for outdoor activities, but the sea is still too cold for many to enjoy swimming comfortably.

In the summer months, from June to August, the waters of the Aegean Sea in Balıkesir reach their peak warmth, with temperatures typically ranging from 21°C to 25°C (70°F to 77°F).

The Sea of Marmara, on the other hand, remains slightly cooler, with temperatures averaging between 19°C and 22°C (66°F to 72°F), still comfortable for beach activities but not as warm as the Aegean. As autumn arrives, the water temperature starts to decrease, but the Aegean remains warm enough for swimming well into September and even early October.
