*** 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
Ludza (Latvian: Ludza), in the Latgale region of eastern Latvia, is surrounded by small lakes and slow rivers whose temperatures follow the typical inland Baltic patterns. In spring (April–May) surface temperatures in lakes usually climb from about 4–12 °C (39–54 °F) as ice melts and warms; rivers tend to remain toward the lower end of that range. In summer (June–August) lake surface temperatures commonly reach 18–24 °C (64–75 °F), occasionally rising to around 25–26 °C (77–79 °F) in shallow, sheltered basins during heatwaves, while rivers are somewhat cooler, often 14–20 °C (57–68 °F) depending on flow and shading. Autumn cooling brings lakes down to roughly 8–14 °C (46–57 °F) in September–October. In winter many water bodies freeze and temperatures near the ice approach 0–4 °C (32–39 °F).
Swimming in Ludza’s lakes and calm river spots is commonly practiced in summer when temperatures are comfortable for bathing, and official bathing areas may be open locally. Swimming is not recommended outside the warm months due to cold water, ice and reduced buoyancy, and water quality can fluctuate after heavy rains; river spots can also have currents or submerged hazards. Local guidelines and posted notices should be followed for safety and hygiene.
