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
Budaki Lagoon, located next to the popular resort of Zatoka in Odesa Oblast, is a unique saline body of water separated from the Black Sea by a narrow sand spit. Due to its shallowness (average depth is about 1 meter) and intense solar heating, the water in the lagoon is extremely warm during the summer. In July and August, the water temperature typically stays within the range of +26 to +28∘C, and in shallow areas, it can warm up to as much as +33∘C, providing ideal conditions for extended and comfortable swimming.
The lagoon is widely used for swimming and recreation, especially for families with children, as the shallow water heats up faster and is safer than the open sea. Moreover, Budaki Lagoon is famous for its therapeutic resources—highly mineralized water and sulfide muds, which possess balneological properties. Swimming here is often combined with wellness procedures, particularly in the coastal resort areas situated on the sand spit.
Overall, Budaki Lagoon is an excellent destination for those seeking very warm water for swimming and a therapeutic rest. Its water is chemically similar to that of the sea but reaches a significantly higher temperature in the summer. Many recreation centers and mini-hotels are located near the lagoon, offering convenient access to both the lagoon and the Black Sea, providing diverse options for water leisure.
