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
Daugavpils, known in Latvian as Daugavpils, sits on the Daugava River and near several small lakes and ponds that reflect the region’s continental climate. Typical surface water temperatures in these lakes vary strongly through the year: in spring (April–May) lake waters commonly range from about 3–12 °C (37–54 °F) as ice melts and warming is uneven; in summer (June–August) daytime surface temperatures often reach 17–24 °C (63–75 °F) at their warmest, making swimming most comfortable; in autumn (September–October) temperatures usually fall to roughly 8–15 °C (46–59 °F); and in winter (November–March) lakes are often at or below freezing at the surface with liquid water beneath ice near 0–4 °C (32–39 °F) where unfrozen, though most surfaces freeze over.
Swimming in Daugavpils-area lakes is possible and commonly undertaken in summer at designated or informal beaches when water temperatures are warm enough and local authorities monitor water quality. Outside the warm months swimming is limited by low temperatures, short daylight and ice cover; winter ice swimming is practiced by some but is only advisable with proper safety measures, local guidance and supervision due to ice thickness, water shock risk and the absence of lifeguards at many spots.
