*** 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
Poprad lies at the foot of the High Tatras, where the climate and surrounding rivers give the local waters a fresh, mountain character. The Poprad River, which flows through the city, stays relatively cool for most of the year, with temperatures in summer usually between 17–21°C depending on weather conditions. After heavy rain or in early summer, the river can feel noticeably colder. Smaller ponds and recreational lakes around the city tend to warm up faster, sometimes reaching 22–24°C during the hottest weeks of July and August.
Swimming in Poprad’s waters is possible, but conditions vary. The river itself is more suited for quick dips and refreshing moments rather than long swims, since the current and cooler water can be challenging. On the other hand, nearby artificial lakes or natural swimming areas provide better opportunities for bathing, especially for families and visitors looking for warmer water. In this way, Poprad offers both the invigorating experience of mountain-fed rivers and more comfortable options for summer swimming.
