*** 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

The water here is constantly moving, so it stays a bit cooler than nearby ponds, usually reaching around 19–22 °C in July and August. In shallower stretches along the riverbanks, temperatures can rise slightly higher, while deeper currents keep the central flow refreshingly cool. This balance makes the Otava in Písek ideal for those who enjoy a natural dip that is both invigorating and pleasant on hot days.

Locals often use accessible riverbanks and calm sections within Písek for bathing, giving the town a lively summer atmosphere. The Otava here combines the convenience of being right in the city with the charm of swimming in a natural river. While it doesn’t provide the same comfort as managed lakes, the flowing water and central location make it a popular choice for residents who want to cool off without leaving town.
