*** 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
#Norfolk
Crome's Broad, a small water body in the Norfolk Broads, experiences seasonal water temperatures that reflect shallow inland conditions. Winter water typically falls to around 4–8 °C (39–46 °F), spring warms to 8–14 °C (46–57 °F), summer commonly ranges from 16–22 °C (61–72 °F) though shallow basins can briefly reach the mid-20s °C (mid-70s °F) in very hot spells, and autumn cools back to about 10–16 °C (50–61 °F). Swimming is possible in Crome's Broad but it is not formally supervised; local rules and signage may restrict entry in places because of boat traffic, submerged vegetation and fluctuating water quality, so visitors should take caution, check conditions and avoid swimming near boats.
The wider area offers other outdoor opportunities: gentle boating and canoeing, wildlife watching among reedbeds and waterfowl, and peaceful walking or cycling along the Broads’ waterways. Nearby attractions include boat hire bases and riverside villages such as Wroxham and Horning, plus nature reserves that appeal to birdwatchers and anyone seeking quiet countryside scenery.
