Water Temperature: Daily Trends, Historical Records, and Forecast
❌ As of today, the minimum water temperature ranges from 50°F (10°C) to 54°F (12°C). The water is slightly warmer, but still cool for most people. Swimming in such conditions is possible, but for most people, the time spent in the water should be limited to avoid hypothermia. Even experienced swimmers may feel discomfort if they stay in the water for too long. To improve comfort and safety, a wetsuit 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
Kinna is an inland locality in Västra Götaland County surrounded by small lakes and the Viskan river system. Surface temperatures in local lakes typically follow seasonal patterns: in spring (March–May) waters often range from about 3–12 °C (37–54 °F) as ice melts, in summer (June–August) commonly 15–24 °C (59–75 °F) with occasional heatwave highs approaching 25 °C (77 °F), in autumn (September–November) cooling to roughly 6–15 °C (43–59 °F), and in winter (December–February) hovering near freezing, about 0–4 °C (32–39 °F) with ice cover likely. Rivers such as Viskan are generally a few degrees colder and more variable than still lakes because of flow and shading, so summer swims in rivers feel cooler than in sheltered bays.
Swimming in Kinna’s lakes and rivers is generally permitted and common, supported by Sweden’s right of public access and by municipal bathing sites where water quality is monitored. However, safety and hygiene can limit swimming: late‑summer cyanobacterial (blue‑green algae) blooms or elevated bacterial counts after heavy rain may lead authorities to advise against bathing. Currents, low winter temperatures, and submerged hazards also present risks, so swimmers should follow local signage, heed water‑quality notices, and exercise caution during shoulder seasons when cold shock is a concern.
