Sens, a historic city located in the Burgundy region of France, sits along the Yonne River, which is known for its calm and scenic waters. While the river offers a picturesque setting for outdoor activities such as fishing, boating, and walking along its banks, swimming in the Yonne River in Sens is not as common. The water temperature here can vary greatly depending on the season, with spring and autumn temperatures typically ranging between 8°C and 14°C (46°F to 57°F), making swimming in these cooler months less desirable for most people.

In the summer months, from June to August, the water temperature increases, generally reaching between 16°C and 22°C (61°F to 72°F), making swimming more feasible.
