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
In Spišská Nová Ves, the river Hornád flows directly through the town, bringing cool mountain water from the Slovak Paradise area. The temperature of the river is usually quite low, especially in spring and early summer, when snowmelt from the nearby mountains keeps it around 10–15 °C. Even in the warmest months of July and August, the water rarely rises above 18–20 °C, so swimming here is refreshing and best suited for those who enjoy colder natural water.
While the Hornád is not a typical swimming destination within the town, locals sometimes use its calmer spots for quick cooling during hot days. Stronger currents and rocky sections mean that bathing is limited and more about brief immersion than longer swimming. For a safer experience, nearby lakes or outdoor pools are generally preferred, but the river still offers a natural way to connect with the water in the middle of the town.
