Water Temperature in Toulouse: General Trends and Swimming Opportunities

Toulouse, located in the Occitanie region of southwestern France, is a vibrant city that lies along the Garonne River. The Garonne River is an important feature of the city, offering a scenic backdrop for both locals and visitors. However, the river's water temperature fluctuates throughout the year, affecting the possibility of swimming. During the summer months, particularly from June to September, the Garonne River's water temperature ranges from around 18°C to 22°C (64°F to 72°F). This makes it relatively comfortable for outdoor activities like kayaking and swimming, although it's important to be cautious of the strong current in certain areas. Many locals enjoy cooling off near the riverbanks or along designated recreational areas such as parks.

In the cooler months, from October to March, the water temperature in the Garonne River drops significantly, often reaching temperatures below 10°C (50°F), making it unsuitable for swimming. While some people may still engage in activities like river cruising or fishing, swimming is not generally recommended due to the cold water. Additionally, there are no official swimming zones in the Garonne River itself within Toulouse. Those seeking more controlled and safe environments for swimming typically head to the city's public pools or the Mediterranean coast, which is a few hours' drive away.
