✅ As of today, the minimum water temperature is above 82°F (28°C). This is very warm water, which may feel almost hot to most people. Swimming in such conditions is perfect for those seeking relaxation and comfort in the water. These waters are often preferred for relaxation in hot weather, as the water temperature does not cool the body significantly. However, it is important to remember that in such warm waters, caution is necessary, as prolonged exposure without rest can lead to overheating. 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
Broadway Lake in South Carolina typically follows the seasonal temperature patterns of small Southeastern U.S. lakes, with surface water warming through spring and peaking in mid to late summer. Typical ranges might be about 40–50°F (4–10°C) in winter, rising to roughly 50–70°F (10–21°C) in spring, 70–85°F (21–29°C) during summer, and cooling to about 55–75°F (13–24°C) in autumn. Shallow bays and day-to-day surface readings can be several degrees warmer or cooler depending on recent weather, wind and depth, so instantaneous temperatures will vary across the lake and with the time of day.
Swimming at Broadway Lake is permitted where public access, designated recreation areas and safe water quality are provided, but exact permissions depend on ownership and management. If the lake is managed by a municipality, park or homeowner association, there are often specific swim zones and posted rules; private or reservoir-controlled lakes may prohibit swimming for safety or water-supply protection. Restrictions also arise when water-quality issues occur, such as harmful algal blooms, high bacterial counts, or hazardous underwater conditions. Visitors should check local signage or contact the managing authority for current access, advisories and recommended precautions before entering the water.
