Water Temperature in Fougères: General Trends and Swimming Opportunities

Fougères, located in Brittany, France, is situated along the Couesnon River, a small river that flows into the Mont Saint-Michel Bay. Although Fougères is well-known for its medieval castle and historic charm, the Couesnon River itself is not typically used for swimming, as it’s relatively shallow and has varied water levels depending on rainfall and seasons. The river’s water temperature remains quite cool, with averages ranging from about 6°C (43°F) in winter to around 15°C (59°F) in summer, which can feel quite chilly for swimming.

Due to these factors, swimming is not common in the Couesnon River, and locals and visitors usually seek out public pools or nearby beaches on the coast for recreational swimming. However, the Couesnon River and its surroundings offer pleasant walking paths and scenic views, ideal for riverside picnics, hiking, and nature walks. For those interested in water activities, kayaking or canoeing in calmer stretches of the Couesnon may be enjoyable options when water levels allow.
