*** 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
Enköping lies on the shores of Lake Mälaren in Uppsala County and offers several accessible spots for bathing and recreational swimming. Seasonal surface temperatures in Mälaren near Enköping typically range from about 0–4 °C (32–39 °F) in winter when ice can form, through roughly 5–15 °C (41–59 °F) in spring and autumn, to commonly 18–22 °C (64–72 °F) in summer; in particularly warm summers surface readings can reach around 24 °C (75 °F) or slightly higher in sheltered bays. These figures are indicative of surface water; temperatures at depth will be lower and local microclimates and weather can shift values week to week.
Swimming is generally allowed and popular during the warmer months at designated beaches, piers and marinas around Enköping. The municipality and regional authorities monitor water quality during the bathing season and will issue advisories if cyanobacteria (blue‑green algae), elevated bacterial counts or other hazards are detected, so official notices determine temporary restrictions. Winter ice swimming is practiced by some, but it requires proper safety precautions because ice thickness and water temperature create real risks. Overall, recreational swimming is feasible and common in summer, with access and safety depending on current water quality and weather conditions.
