*** Forecast - Our water temperature forecast

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

Barth is a small city nestled in the state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany, and sits on the southern shores of Barther Bodden, a brackish coastal lagoon part of the larger Darß-Zingst Bodden chain. The water temperature of the lake tends to vary significantly depending on the season and can be influenced by a variety of factors including regional weather conditions, the depth of the water in different areas, and inflow from the Baltic Sea. Generally, the water temperature can be quite chilly, with summer temperatures typically peaking around a relatively mild 15-20 degrees Celsius (59-68 degrees Fahrenheit).

Regarding swimming opportunities, please note that the waters in this region, being a brackish lagoon, can be significantly colder than seawater due to freshwater inflows. However, during the warmer months, typically between June and August, it can still provide an enjoyable swimming experience, provided you are comfortable with the cooler temperatures. Given its stunning natural beauty and biodiversity, the Barther Bodden area is a popular place for nature lovers. There are no outright restrictions on swimming, but it is always recommended to take into consideration the local weather conditions.
