*** 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
In Nova Kakhovka, the Dnieper River used to expand into the Kakhovka Reservoir before the dam collapse, creating broad, calm water zones that warmed significantly in summer. In those reservoir-like stretches, surface temperatures in peak July and August often reached into the mid-20s °C (for example around 24–27 °C in sunny, shallow parts). In deeper or shaded areas, and especially near the remains of infrastructure, water remained cooler — perhaps 20–23 °C. After the 2023 destruction of the Kakhovka dam, the reservoir largely drained, and the Dnieper in that region has reverted more to a riverine character, meaning warmer shallow areas still exist but the changes in depth and flow can lead to more variable temperatures than before.
Swimming around Nova Kakhovka is possible, especially in calmer river bends or where remnants of the reservoir still create backwaters or slow zones. Locals tend to use sandy or gently sloping shores for accessing the water. But after the dam collapse, currents, silt, and the reshaping of riverbeds have increased risks; some formerly shallow zones may now be deeper or have unknown underwater features. Hence, swimmers should pick safe, familiar spots and exercise extra caution — checking the depth, observing the flow, and avoiding zones with strong current or debris.
