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
Negotino is a town in the central part of North Macedonia, located along the banks of the Vardar River, which flows through the Tikveš Valley. The Vardar in this region has a moderate continental climate influence, with its water temperature varying widely throughout the year. In winter, the river cools down to around 3–6 °C, while in summer it warms to 22–26 °C, depending on rainfall and air temperature. During the warmer months, the river’s flow becomes slower, and the shallow banks near Negotino offer calm areas suitable for recreation and relaxation by the water.
Swimming in the Vardar near Negotino is allowed, though it is not heavily practiced due to variable depth and current strength. Locals sometimes swim or cool off in the river during July and August, when the water reaches its most pleasant temperatures. However, caution is advised, as currents can be unpredictable in deeper sections. More often, the river area is used for fishing, picnicking, and enjoying the peaceful Tikveš landscape. The Vardar remains an essential natural feature of Negotino, adding freshness and character to the surrounding vineyards and fertile plains.
