*** 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
Gargždai, a town in western Lithuania, is surrounded by small lakes and waterways that warm and cool with the seasons. Typical water temperatures in these lakes rise from around 4–14 °C (39–57 °F) in spring to roughly 17–24 °C (63–75 °F) in the height of summer. In early autumn temperatures generally fall to about 8–15 °C (46–59 °F), and in winter surface water commonly approaches freezing, around 0–4 °C (32–39 °F), with many lakes developing solid ice cover during the coldest months.
Swimming in the lakes near Gargždai is generally possible and common in the ice‑free season, when conditions are safest and municipal bathing areas or informal beaches are in use. In winter, open‑water swimming is not advised due to ice and very low temperatures; only organised ice‑swimming groups with safety measures and experience should enter such cold water. Local rules and water quality can vary, so swimming is normally recommended during summer months when temperatures are warmer and visibility and access are better, while winter activity requires special precautions to avoid hypothermia and other hazards.
