*** 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
The Embalse de la Peña del Águila in Extremadura typically shows marked seasonal variation in surface water temperature. In winter the reservoir often ranges from about 6–12 °C (43–54 °F), spring temperatures tend to climb to roughly 12–18 °C (54–64 °F), summer surface conditions commonly reach 20–26 °C (68–79 °F) on warm days, and autumn cooling usually places the water around 14–20 °C (57–68 °F). These figures are approximate: actual temperatures fluctuate with air temperature, recent rainfall, reservoir depth and local currents, so deeper water remains colder year-round and shallow bays warm more quickly in summer.
Swimming opportunities at Embalse de la Peña del Águila depend on local rules and conditions. Some reservoirs in Extremadura permit bathing in designated areas, while others restrict access because they serve as water supply reservoirs, are managed for irrigation or hydroelectric purposes, or for safety and ecological protection; submerged obstacles, boat traffic and variable currents can also pose hazards. Visitors should look for posted signage, follow municipal regulations and check water-quality information before entering. Even in summer, pay attention to cold-water shock risks in deeper zones and the absence of lifeguards or facilities when planning to swim.
