*** Forecast - Our water temperature forecast
Actual nearshore water temperatures may fluctuate by several degrees from the reported values, especially following heavy rainfall or extended periods of strong winds. Certain wind patterns can cause colder, deeper waters to rise and replace the sun-warmed surface water, leading to noticeable variations.
Our forecast is based on a proprietary mathematical model that considers real-time water temperature changes, historical trends, key weather patterns, wind strength and direction, and air temperature specific to each region. Additionally, we incorporate data from other resorts to enhance accuracy.

Location & Local Information
Berat (Berati) sits on the Osum River and near several small reservoirs and lake-like sections of the river. Surface water temperatures in these inland waters vary seasonally: in winter they commonly sit around 6–10 °C (43–50 °F), in spring they rise to roughly 11–18 °C (52–64 °F), and in summer typical surface readings are about 20–26 °C (68–79 °F), with shallow, sheltered pockets sometimes warming to 27–28 °C (80–82 °F) during heat spells. In autumn temperatures generally fall back into the 12–18 °C (54–64 °F) range. These are approximate values for open, near-shore areas; exact figures depend on depth, shading, recent weather and inflows.
Swimming in and around Berat is commonly practiced in summer when temperatures are most comfortable, and many locals and visitors enter the river or reservoirs for recreation. However, swimming rules and safety vary: some reservoirs or dam-adjacent zones may prohibit bathing for safety or operational reasons, water quality can change after heavy rains, and there may be strong currents, cold deeper water layers, or no lifeguards. It is advisable to follow posted signs, check local guidance on permitted areas, and exercise typical open-water precautions before swimming.
