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
Bijelo Polje is a town in northern Montenegro, situated along the Lim River, which flows through a mountainous landscape before continuing toward Serbia. The Lim here is clear, fast-flowing, and relatively cold throughout most of the year due to its origin in the highlands of Prokletije. In spring, the water temperature usually ranges from 8 to 13 °C, while in summer it rises to 17–22 °C, occasionally reaching 23 °C in calmer stretches. During autumn, it cools to around 12–16 °C, and in winter it drops below 5 °C, as the river is fed by snowmelt and mountain springs. Its steady flow and clean water make it an important natural feature of the Bijelo Polje area.
Swimming in the Lim River near Bijelo Polje is possible in summer, but the water remains cold even during the warmest months. Locals sometimes swim in shallower or slower parts of the river to cool off, but long swimming sessions are rare due to the low temperature and strong currents. The Lim is more frequently used for fishing, rafting, and kayaking. Still, in July and August, the river offers a refreshing experience for those seeking contact with clean mountain water and natural scenery.
