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
Cabourg is a charming seaside town located in Normandy, France, situated on the banks of the Dives River, which flows into the English Channel. While the Dives River itself is not typically used for recreational swimming, its proximity to the coastline and the sea makes Cabourg an excellent destination for water activities. The water temperature in the Dives River tends to be cool, especially during the colder months, with average temperatures ranging from 7-10°C (45-50°F) in winter. In the warmer months, particularly in late spring and summer, the water temperature can rise to around 15-18°C (59-64°F), which may be suitable for short swims or wading.
However, the river's water quality can vary, and swimming in the Dives is not as common as in some other rivers. For visitors looking for swimming opportunities, Cabourg offers more accessible options. The town is famous for its long sandy beaches, which are directly connected to the English Channel. The sea water temperature in Cabourg during the summer months can range from 18-22°C (64-72°F), making it much more inviting for swimming, especially when compared to the river. The beaches are equipped with various amenities, and the town also offers lifeguard services during the high summer season, making it a safer and more popular spot for swimmers.
