Water Temperature: Daily Trends, Historical Records, and Forecast

❌ As of today, the minimum water temperature ranges from 47°F (8°C) to 50°F (10°C). This is still cool water, suitable only for experienced swimmers or those accustomed to cold water. Swimming in such conditions is possible, but not recommended for prolonged periods. Extra caution should be taken during extended exposure, as the cold water can cause heat loss and lead to hypothermia. For added comfort, special clothing can be used. 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

Eskilstuna (in Swedish - Eskilstuna) is an inland town in Södermanland with several lakes, ponds and the Eskilstunaån river running through it. Water temperatures in these freshwater bodies follow the typical inland Swedish pattern: in spring (April–May) surface temperatures are often about 2–10 °C (36–50 °F) as ice melts and waters slowly warm. In summer (June–August) sheltered lakes can reach roughly 15–22 °C (59–72 °F) and on warm spells 23–25 °C (73–77 °F); rivers tend to remain a few degrees cooler due to flow and shading. In autumn (September–October) temperatures commonly fall to around 8–15 °C (46–59 °F) as cooling resumes, and in winter (November–March) waters approach freezing and many smaller lakes and slow stretches of river freeze over, sitting near 0 °C (32 °F) or below where ice is present.

Swimming in Eskilstuna’s lakes and designated river bathing spots is generally allowed and popular in summer because municipal beaches and maintained access points provide safer places to enter the water. Authorities monitor water quality at public bathing sites and post advice, and swimmers should heed warnings about currents, low visibility, or algal blooms. Winter swimming is possible only at prepared, supervised ice-bathing facilities; otherwise ice and low temperatures make swimming unsafe.
