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 reservoir known as Embalse de Cancho del Fresno (Spanish: Embalse de Cancho del Fresno) in Extremadura typically shows pronounced seasonal variation in surface water temperature. In winter surface temperatures often fall to around 6–12 °C (43–54 °F), spring brings a gradual rise to about 10–18 °C (50–64 °F), summer can warm the shallows to roughly 20–26 °C (68–79 °F) on warm spells, and autumn commonly lies between 14–20 °C (57–68 °F). These figures are approximate and depend on recent weather, inflows, reservoir depth and local shading; deeper or shaded bays remain cooler even in summer, while shallow areas warm more quickly.
Swimming at Embalse de Cancho del Fresno is possible in many parts, but it is not uniformly regulated or supervised. Some reservoirs in Extremadura allow bathing unless signs or rules prohibit it, while others are restricted because they serve as water supplies or for safety and ecological reasons; therefore local signage, municipal regulations and water-quality notices should be checked before entering. Hazards such as sudden depth changes, submerged objects, lack of lifeguards and variable water quality mean that even when bathing is permitted, swimmers should exercise caution, avoid risky areas and be aware of ephemeral closures for maintenance or water management.
