Water Temperature: Daily Trends, Historical Records, and Forecast

✅ 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

Embalse Alfonso XIII, located in the Murcia region of southeastern Spain, experiences water temperatures that follow the Mediterranean seasonal pattern and vary with depth, inflow and weather. Typical winter surface temperatures are around 8–13 °C (46–55 °F), spring warms into roughly 12–18 °C (54–64 °F), peak summer values commonly reach 22–28 °C (72–82 °F) on warm afternoons, and autumn usually cools to about 15–20 °C (59–68 °F). These figures are approximate and can shift year to year; deeper or shaded areas will remain colder and sudden weather events can change surface temperatures quickly.

Swimming opportunities at Embalse Alfonso XIII are limited and depend on local regulations and conditions. Many reservoirs in the region are managed for water supply and irrigation, and authorities often restrict bathing to protect water quality and ensure safety, since there are no lifeguards, marked swimming zones or guaranteed water quality monitoring. For these reasons, official organized swimming is generally not promoted there, though some people may swim informally in warmer months. Always check current local signage and municipal rules before entering the water, and consider safety hazards such as submerged structures, changing depths and boat traffic.
