Water Temperature in Agen: General Trends and Swimming Opportunities

Agen is a city located in the south of France, along the Garonne River, known for its historic landmarks and pleasant climate. The Garonne River, which runs through the city, offers various recreational opportunities, including occasional swimming. The water temperature in the Garonne River fluctuates throughout the year, with the coldest months being from November to March, where temperatures can range from 5°C to 10°C (41°F to 50°F). These colder conditions make swimming in the river uncomfortable and not recommended during this period.

During the warmer months, particularly from May to September, the water temperature in the Garonne River rises, reaching between 16°C and 22°C (61°F to 72°F). This is more conducive to swimming, especially on hot summer days. However, despite these warmer temperatures, the Garonne River is not a designated swimming area, and swimming in the river itself is not actively promoted by the city. The river's strong current, combined with occasional debris and varying water quality, makes it a less ideal location for recreational swimming. For a safer and more controlled swimming experience, residents and visitors typically head to public swimming pools or nearby lakes and beaches, where swimming conditions are monitored more closely.
