Annual Water Temperature Trend

Palm Bay, on Florida’s east coast in Brevard County, sits along the Indian River Lagoon and is a short drive from Atlantic Ocean beaches. Water temperatures in the area vary seasonally: winter months typically see surface waters around 17–22 °C, spring warms to roughly 20–26 °C, summer is the warmest with common temperatures of 26–30 °C or slightly higher during heat spells, and autumn usually ranges from 24–28 °C as the ocean retains summer warmth. The lagoon can be a few degrees warmer in sheltered shallow spots and may cool or warm more quickly than the open Atlantic. These temperature patterns make the local waters comfortably mild for much of the year, with the warmest swimming conditions from late spring through early fall.
