Water Temperature: Daily Trends, Historical Records, and Forecast
⚠️ As of today, the minimum water temperature ranges from 54°F (12°C) to 60°F (15°C). The water is significantly warmer, and swimming becomes possible for most people. However, caution may still be required for prolonged stays in the water, as extended exposure can cause discomfort. This is a suitable temperature range for short swims and for those accustomed to cooler water. For more comfortable swimming, it is recommended to use proper gear. 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
The Iskrivske Reservoir on the Inhulets marks one of the regulation points of the river in Kirovohrad Oblast. In summer months, the water in this stretch of Inhulets (including near the reservoir) can warm up to comfortable swimming levels—typically in the low to mid-20s °C. For example, river temperature measurements elsewhere along the Inhulets show values around 16 °C currently (outside of summer), but during the warm season the water often reaches 20–25 °C or more.
However, whether swimming is advisable right at the reservoir depends on other factors: the depth and circulation of the water, possible stagnation, water quality (pollutants, algae), and safety of banks or bottoms. Artificial reservoirs sometimes have slower flow and zones of poor mixing, which can lead to warm but less fresh water or stratification. So even if the temperature is favorable during summer, one should check local conditions (clarity, current, aquatic plants) before swimming there.
