Water Temperature: Daily Trends, Historical Records, and Forecast

❌ As of today, the minimum water temperature ranges from 41°F (5°C) to 47°F (8°C). This water temperature is still quite low, and swimming in such conditions may only be comfortable for hardened individuals. It is recommended to limit the time spent in the water to avoid hypothermia. For those not accustomed to cold water, it is better to refrain from swimming. However, if you decide to enter the water, it is advisable to wear a warm wetsuit for protection against the cold. 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

Frederikssund (Danish: Frederikssund) lies on the shores of Roskilde Fjord in the Capital Region of Denmark, and the local waters are influenced by shallow, brackish conditions that make them respond quickly to air temperatures. Seasonal surface temperatures in these fjord and lake-like basins typically range from close to freezing in the depths of winter, about 0–4 °C (32–39 °F), to spring values of roughly 5–12 °C (41–54 °F). In summer the water commonly warms to around 17–22 °C (63–72 °F), and during heat spells can rise occasionally to 23–24 °C (73–75 °F). Autumn cooling generally brings temperatures down to 8–15 °C (46–59 °F) before winter sets in again.

Swimming is permitted in Frederikssund at public beaches and designated bathing sites around the fjord, owing to Denmark’s public access rights and municipal management of bathing areas. The municipality monitors water quality during the bathing season and some beaches are staffed with lifeguards at peak times, but conditions vary with weather, currents and algae blooms, so local advisories should be noted. Cold-water safety is important outside high summer temperatures, and swimmers should be aware of hypothermia risk, variable visibility and boat traffic in harbor-adjacent areas.
