Water Temperature: Daily Trends, Historical Records, and Forecast
⚠️ As of today, the minimum water temperature ranges from 65°F (18°C) to 68°F (20°C). This is already quite warm water, which is ideal for most people. Swimming becomes comfortable, and prolonged stays in the water do not cause discomfort. This temperature is perfect for family trips and for those who prefer warmer water. It is also comfortable for water sports such as surfing or swimming. It is important to note that these swimming tips and recommendations apply only in good weather. When the air temperature is below 68°F (20°C), and sometimes even below 77°F (25°C), swimming can be unpleasant even with relatively high water temperatures.

*** 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
Pamplona (in Spanish - Pamplona) is the capital of Navarre and lies close to several reservoirs and river stretches rather than a large natural lake inside the city. Water temperatures in nearby reservoirs and calmer river stretches follow a clear seasonal pattern: in winter surface temperatures commonly sit around 4–8 °C (39–46 °F), in spring they rise to roughly 8–15 °C (46–59 °F), in summer they typically reach about 18–25 °C (64–77 °F) and can occasionally climb to 26–27 °C (79–81 °F) during hot spells, while autumn usually sees a cooling to around 10–16 °C (50–61 °F). These ranges depend on local weather, depth, and inflows, so exact readings vary by site and year.
Swimming is possible at some of the nearby reservoirs and designated river spots, and local authorities sometimes permit bathing in marked recreational areas because the waters are calm and suited for summer use. However, permissions and safety measures change with water quality, maintenance needs, reservoir uses (such as drinking supply or boating), and seasonal hazards, so swimming may be restricted or discouraged at times. Visitors should follow signage and municipal guidance, as lifeguard coverage, water quality monitoring and formal bathing areas differ across sites.
