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
Višegrad, located in eastern Bosnia and Herzegovina, lies on the banks of the Drina River, one of the country’s most famous and scenic waterways. The Drina is formed from mountain streams and reservoirs, which gives it a clear but cool character. In winter, the river’s temperature drops to around 3–6°C, while in spring it gradually rises to 10–14°C. During the summer, particularly in July and August, the water warms to 18–22°C in calmer sections. In autumn, it cools again to 10–15°C as the air temperature decreases.
Swimming in the Drina near Višegrad is possible during the summer, though the water remains refreshing and somewhat cold due to its mountain origin. The current can be strong in some areas, so swimming is recommended only in designated or calmer zones. Locals often swim near the town’s riverbanks or small beaches where the flow is gentler. The Drina’s clean and vivid green water, surrounded by forested hills, creates a beautiful setting for both recreation and relaxation.
