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.
Water temperature data for this location is gathered from various sources, including buoys and satellite sea and ocean surface maps provided by the NOAA agency. We also incorporate data from local authorities in each specific location worldwide to ensure more accurate temperature readings.
Annual Water Temperature Overview by Month
Monthly Water Temp Ranges
Annual Water Temperature Trend
Chandler sits on the southern shore of the Gaspé Peninsula along the sheltered waters of Baie des Chaleurs, and its coastal water temperatures reflect that protected setting. In spring the nearshore water commonly ranges from about 4°C to 10°C as the Gulf waters slowly warm. By early summer in June temperatures typically rise into the 12°C to 16°C band. The warmest period is generally July and August, when surface temperatures are most often between 18°C and 22°C and can occasionally reach the mid-20s °C during heat spells. As autumn arrives the bay cools back to roughly 12°C–16°C in September and drops more steeply through October and November toward the single digits. In winter the coastal sea is near freezing and may be close to 0°C at times, with shore ice common in colder seasons.

Swimming Conditions
Swimming and beach holidays in Chandler are shaped by these seasonal patterns and the bay’s sheltered character. During the core summer months visitors can expect comfortable conditions for casual swimming, wading and family beach days when surface temperatures are in the high teens to low twenties °C; the relatively calm waters of the bay make many beaches suitable for children and beginner swimmers. Outside midsummer, water feels brisk and many people choose shorter dips or wetsuits when temperatures fall below about 18°C. Facilities, parking and picnic spots are available at popular shoreline areas, and alternatives such as kayaking, paddleboarding and rocky-coast walks expand seaside recreation when the water is cooler. As always, swimmers should heed local safety notices, watch for wind and current changes, and be prepared for rapid temperature shifts outside the warmest weeks.
