Water Temperature Trends

Rize Province, located on the northeastern coast of Turkey along the Black Sea, experiences relatively cool water temperatures throughout the year, influenced by the chilly currents of the Black Sea. During the summer months of June to August, the sea temperature is moderate, ranging between 20°C and 22°C (68°F to 72°F). This makes it comfortable for swimming and enjoying beach activities, although the water can still feel a bit cool compared to other coastal regions in Turkey.

As autumn approaches, from September to October, the water temperature in Rize gradually decreases to about 16°C to 19°C (61°F to 66°F). These cooler temperatures are still manageable for those who enjoy a brisk swim, but the beach becomes less crowded as the season changes. By November, the sea temperature dips further, dropping to around 10°C to 13°C (50°F to 55°F), which is too cold for most to swim, marking the end of the coastal swimming season.

During the winter months, from December to February, the water temperature in Rize drops significantly, typically ranging from 6°C to 9°C (43°F to 48°F). The cold conditions make the coast less appealing for beachgoers, and the sea is too chilly for swimming. As spring approaches in March and April, the water temperature begins to rise gradually, reaching around 8°C to 12°C (46°F to 54°F), although it's still considered quite cool for most swimmers.
