Water Temperature: Daily Trends, Historical Records, and Forecast
❌ As of today, the minimum water temperature ranges from 41°F (5°C) to 47°F (8°C). This water temperature is still quite low, and swimming in such conditions may only be comfortable for hardened individuals. It is recommended to limit the time spent in the water to avoid hypothermia. For those not accustomed to cold water, it is better to refrain from swimming. However, if you decide to enter the water, it is advisable to wear a warm wetsuit for protection against the cold. 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
Nyköping (in Swedish: Nyköping) in Södermanland lies amid lakes and rivers whose temperatures vary strongly through the year. In winter many lakes and slow-moving waterways sit at or near freezing, about 0–3 °C (32–37 °F), and are frequently ice-covered; flowing rivers can remain slightly warmer but still close to 0–4 °C (32–39 °F). During spring the surface waters typically rise to roughly 4–12 °C (39–54 °F) as ice melts and the sun gains strength. In summer common lake temperatures are in the 16–22 °C range (61–72 °F), and during particularly warm spells shallow lakes may reach around 24 °C (75 °F); rivers usually stay a few degrees cooler, often 14–20 °C (57–68 °F). In autumn waters cool again, moving from about 12 °C down toward 4–8 °C (54–39 °F) by late season.
Swimming in Nyköping’s lakes and rivers is generally allowed and popular in summer at designated bathing sites, but it is subject to practical and safety considerations. The municipality monitors water quality and can advise against bathing when cyanobacterial blooms occur or after heavy runoff; many beaches lack lifeguards so swimmers should be cautious about currents, sudden depth changes and lower river temperatures. Ice swimming and winter bathing are practiced by some, but require safe ice conditions and appropriate precautions.
