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
Waregem is a city located in the Flanders region of Belgium, along the Lys River (Leie River), which flows through the region into France. The water temperature in the Lys River fluctuates with the seasons, being cooler in the winter and warmer in the summer. During the summer months, the water temperature typically ranges from 16°C to 20°C (61°F to 68°F), which can be suitable for swimming in certain calm, shallow sections of the river. However, swimming in the Lys River is not commonly practiced, as the water can be affected by pollution from urban runoff, agriculture, and industrial areas. While there are areas of the river that are relatively clean, water quality can vary, making swimming in the river less safe. Additionally, strong currents in certain stretches of the river can present safety risks. In winter, the water temperature drops to between 4°C and 7°C (39°F to 45°F), making swimming dangerous due to the cold temperatures and potentially strong flows.
