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 Piedras, located in Andalusia, experiences clear seasonal variation in water temperature typical of inland reservoirs in southern Spain. During the coldest months (winter) surface temperatures commonly sit around 6–12 °C (43–54 °F). In spring the water gradually warms to roughly 12–18 °C (54–64 °F). Peak warmth arrives in summer when shallow areas and sun‑exposed surfaces can reach about 20–26 °C (68–79 °F). In autumn the reservoir cools again, with temperatures returning to roughly 12–18 °C (54–64 °F) before the winter lows set in. Local factors such as water level, depth, inflow from mountain streams and recent weather can cause short‑term fluctuations, so observed temperatures at popular access points may differ from long‑term averages.
Swimming at Embalse de Piedras is a common recreational activity in warm months, but its permissibility depends on management rules and the reservoir’s role in water supply. Some reservoirs in Andalusia forbid bathing to protect drinking or irrigation water and for safety reasons — steep banks, sudden depth changes and submerged obstacles pose hazards — while other areas tolerate informal swimming where signage and local authorities allow it. Visitors should follow posted restrictions, be mindful of water quality and currents, and treat swimming here as potentially regulated rather than universally permitted.
