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 de Mediano, located in Aragón, is a high-clearance reservoir whose water temperatures reflect its mountain-influenced climate. In winter the surface commonly sits around 2–8 °C (36–46 °F), remaining distinctly cold even on sunny days. Spring waters gradually warm to roughly 8–14 °C (46–57 °F) as snowmelt and inflows increase. During the warmest months of July and August temperatures typically reach about 18–25 °C (64–77 °F) in sheltered areas, though deeper sections remain noticeably cooler. In autumn surface temperatures fall back toward 10–16 °C (50–61 °F) as air temperatures drop and inflows cool.
Swimming in Embalse de Mediano is practiced by visitors but is subject to local regulations and safety considerations, so it is important to heed signage and municipal rules. The reservoir’s variable depth, sudden drop-offs, submerged obstacles, and occasional boat traffic make it less suitable for casual bathing than managed beaches; the persistently cool water outside peak summer months can also present hypothermia risks. Where bathing is permitted, people should choose sheltered areas, avoid solo swims, and be aware that water conditions can change quickly due to dam releases and weather.
