*** 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
Girona’s most familiar natural water body is the Estany de Banyoles, a glacial lake a short distance from the city that sets the benchmark for local lake swimming. Surface temperatures at Banyoles and similar reservoirs in the Girona area vary by season: in spring the water typically averages about 12–18 °C (54–64 °F), in summer it warms to roughly 20–26 °C (68–79 °F), in autumn it cools to around 14–20 °C (57–68 °F), and in winter temperatures commonly fall into the 6–12 °C (43–54 °F) range. Local fluctuations occur with depth, weather patterns and inflows from springs or tributaries, so short-term conditions can differ from these seasonal norms.
Swimming is generally permitted in designated areas when local authorities declare bathing safe, and in summer the lake is a popular spot thanks to milder surface temperatures, monitored water quality and on-duty lifeguards at official beaches. However, bathing can be restricted for environmental protection, water-quality issues such as algal growth, or maintenance work, and cold winter temperatures make prolonged immersion hazardous due to hypothermia risk. Visitors should follow posted signage, check current water-quality notices and use marked swimming zones for safety.
