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
Novi Grad, a town in the northwestern part of Bosnia and Herzegovina, is inextricably linked to the Una River, renowned for its clean, emerald green waters. The Una is fundamentally a cold river, being spring-fed and influenced by its mountain origins. Consequently, its water remains cold throughout the year. In the winter, the temperature is typically very low, generally ranging from 5∘C to 9∘C. Even during the warmest summer months, the water in the Novi Grad area rarely exceeds 18∘C to 21∘C, which, while refreshing, is still on the cooler side for casual swimming.
Swimming in the Una River is a tradition and a popular summer activity in Novi Grad, particularly at designated spots like the town beach. While the temperature is cool, the river's exceptionally high water quality and clarity make it a highly desirable place for aquatic recreation. Swimming is generally permitted and welcomed during peak season. However, due to the inherent coolness of the water and the powerful currents in certain sections of the river, caution is always advised, and swimming is best enjoyed in the calmer, established bathing areas.
