Water Temperature in Wervik: General Trends and Swimming Opportunities

Wervik is a city in the Flanders region of Belgium, located along the Lys River (also known as Leie River). The water temperature in the Lys River varies throughout the year, being cooler in the winter months and warmer in the summer. During the summer, the water temperature typically ranges from 16°C to 20°C (61°F to 68°F), which might be suitable for swimming in calm sections of the river. However, swimming in the Lys River is not widely practiced, mainly due to concerns about water quality. The river flows through both urban and rural areas, and pollution from industrial, agricultural, and residential sources can affect the safety of the water. In certain sections, the water quality may be improved, but contamination from various sources remains a concern. In winter, the water temperature drops to around 4°C to 7°C (39°F to 45°F), which makes swimming highly dangerous due to the cold temperatures and strong currents.
