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
The Cuevas del Almanzora Reservoir (Embalse de Cuevas del Almanzora) lies in the province of Almería in Andalusia and experiences the region’s warm, semi-arid climate. Water temperatures vary through the year: in winter months they typically sit around 8–14 °C (46–57 °F), in spring rise to roughly 12–18 °C (54–64 °F), summer surface temperatures commonly reach 20–26 °C (68–79 °F) and sometimes higher in very shallow areas, and autumn cools back to about 15–22 °C (59–72 °F). These values are approximate and depend on recent weather, reservoir depth and inflow; shallow bays warm faster while deeper parts remain noticeably cooler.
Swimming at the Embalse de Cuevas del Almanzora is not generally promoted as an official recreational beach; many inland reservoirs in Spain are subject to restrictions intended to protect water quality, support irrigation or drinking-water uses, and reduce safety risks such as sudden depth changes, submerged hazards and boat traffic. As a result, formal bathing facilities and lifeguard services are usually absent, and any bathing that does occur tends to be informal and at visitors’ own risk. Visitors should observe local signage and municipal rules before entering the water and consider coastal beaches nearby for supervised swimming.
