Water Temperature: Daily Trends, Historical Records, and Forecast

⚠️ As of today, the minimum water temperature ranges from 54°F (12°C) to 60°F (15°C). The water is significantly warmer, and swimming becomes possible for most people. However, caution may still be required for prolonged stays in the water, as extended exposure can cause discomfort. This is a suitable temperature range for short swims and for those accustomed to cooler water. For more comfortable swimming, it is recommended to use proper gear. It is important to note that these swimming tips and recommendations apply only in good weather. When the air temperature is below 68°F (20°C), and sometimes even below 77°F (25°C), swimming can be unpleasant even with relatively high water temperatures.

*** 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

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.
