*** 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
Kreuzau is a small town situated in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. One of its notable geographical features is its proximity to the Roer River (Rur in German), a significant European waterway. While specific water temperature data for the Roer River near Kreuzau is not readily available, the water temperature in rivers in this region of Germany typically varies significantly with the seasons. In the summer months, from June to September, the water could be warm enough for swimming, typically ranging between 15 to 20 degrees Celsius (59 to 68 degrees Fahrenheit). However, it's important to note that rivers can have sudden temperature changes depending on weather, depth, and current.
Swimming in the river can be a subjective matter, largely dependent on personal choice, local laws and safety considerations. As there are potential hazards and prohibitions associated with swimming in some sections of rivers, it is advisable to research and adhere to local regulations and potential warnings about water pollution, undercurrents, or wildlife. Indeed, swimming is not generally advised in parts of the Roer River due to strong undercurrents and fluctuating water levels. However, certain stretches of the river near Kreuzau may be safer and regulated for recreational use, where designated swimming areas may be found. It is always recommended to swim in designated areas and only when the conditions are safe. The Roer River flows into the larger Meuse River, and along these rivers, there are many man-made lakes and pools that are safe for public swimming.
