*** 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
In Paks, the Danube is a defining feature of the town, flowing wide and steady along its banks. The water temperature here changes strongly with the seasons: in winter it often drops close to 2–4 °C, in spring it slowly rises, and in the height of summer it can reach around 22–25 °C. This makes the river refreshing and suitable for cooling down on hot days, though its strong currents mean it is less predictable than smaller lakes.
Swimming in the Danube at Paks is possible, but it is not an organized or common activity. The flow of the river is powerful, and locals usually prefer it for boating, fishing, or simply enjoying the riverside. Those who do enter the water typically do so in calmer, shallow spots, especially during the warm months. For safe and comfortable bathing, most people rely on local pools or nearby lakes, while the Danube provides more of a natural and adventurous experience.
