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.
Water temperature data for this location is gathered from various sources, including buoys and satellite sea and ocean surface maps provided by the NOAA agency. We also incorporate data from local authorities in each specific location worldwide to ensure more accurate temperature readings.
Annual Water Temperature Overview by Month

Annual Water Temperature Trend
Da Nang sits on Vietnam’s central coast and experiences warm seas year-round, with modest seasonal variation. Typical surface water temperatures run from about 22–24°C in the coolest months of January and February, rise to roughly 24–26°C during spring and autumn transition periods, and peak around 26–30°C through the height of summer between May and September. These values reflect a subtropical-monsoonal climate where water temperatures are influenced by wind patterns and occasional cold surges from the north in winter.

Swimming Conditions
Swimming and beach holidays in Da Nang are popular because of the generally comfortable water temperatures and long stretches of sandy shoreline. From late spring into early autumn, calmer seas and water near 26–30°C make swimming, snorkeling close to shore, and casual paddle activities enjoyable for most visitors. During the winter months, when water is nearer 22–24°C, swimming is still possible but may feel brisk to some, and weather-related swell or rain can affect conditions. Visitors should watch local forecasts and beach advisories for currents and seasonal storms, choose guarded areas where available, and time their trip according to preferred water warmth and sea state.
