Water Temperature: Daily Trends, Historical Records, and Forecast

⚠️ As of today, the minimum water temperature ranges from 65°F (18°C) to 68°F (20°C). This is already quite warm water, which is ideal for most people. Swimming becomes comfortable, and prolonged stays in the water do not cause discomfort. This temperature is perfect for family trips and for those who prefer warmer water. It is also comfortable for water sports such as surfing or swimming. It is important to note that these swimming tips and recommendations apply only in good weather. When the air temperature is below 68°F (20°C), and sometimes even below 77°F (25°C), swimming can be unpleasant even with relatively high water temperatures.

*** 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

The area around Lucca in Tuscany is close to several lakes and reservoirs, most notably Lake Massaciuccoli in the coastal plain and a handful of mountain reservoirs in the Garfagnana such as Gramolazzo and Vagli a little farther north. Water temperatures vary by site and season: lowland Massaciuccoli typically runs from around 6–12 °C (43–54 °F) in winter, through 10–18 °C (50–64 °F) in spring, to roughly 20–26 °C (68–79 °F) in summer, and back to 14–20 °C (57–68 °F) in autumn. Mountain reservoirs stay cooler year-round, often 4–8 °C (39–46 °F) in winter and 18–22 °C (64–72 °F) in the warmest months.

Swimming is possible in parts of the Lucca area but conditions and allowances differ. Some reservoirs and designated spots are used for bathing and water recreation in summer when temperatures are more comfortable, while Lake Massaciuccoli includes protected marshland and reed beds where swimming is often not promoted or is limited for ecological and water-quality reasons. Local signage, municipal rules and seasonal water-quality advisories determine where bathing is allowed; visitors should check current information, watch for algae or vegetation, and follow safety guidance such as lifeguard presence and weather conditions before entering the water.
