Water Temperature in Wrocław: General Trends and Swimming Opportunities

Wrocław, the capital of Lower Silesian Voivodeship, is situated on the banks of the Oder River, which plays an essential role in the city's landscape and recreational activities. The river is a prominent feature of Wrocław, offering both scenic views and various opportunities for water-based activities. When it comes to swimming, however, the Oder is not a common choice for locals and tourists alike. While the river is often calm, the water temperature can fluctuate significantly depending on the season. During the summer months, the water temperature can rise to around 18-22°C, which is acceptable for a refreshing swim, though the water's quality can sometimes be a concern.

In the past, swimming in the Oder was more common, but nowadays, due to the river's varying water quality and stronger currents in some sections, people are generally advised to avoid swimming directly in the river. However, Wrocław offers other more controlled places for swimming, such as public pools and nearby lakes, where the water quality is monitored and conditions are safer. The Oder is, however, an excellent destination for boating, kayaking, and other water sports, which remain popular among those looking for adventure and relaxation.
