*** 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 Santa Teresa, a reservoir in Castile and León, shows the seasonal variability typical of inland Spanish reservoirs. Surface water temperatures in winter often sit around 4–8 °C (39–46 °F), rising through spring to roughly 8–16 °C (46–61 °F) as air temperatures warm. In summer the surface generally warms to about 18–26 °C (64–79 °F), and in particularly hot spells can locally reach the upper 20s °C (around 80–82 °F). During autumn the water cools again, with typical readings of 10–18 °C (50–64 °F). These are approximate surface values; deeper or shaded areas remain colder and temperature can vary with year-to-year weather, wind and inflow from the river system.

Swimming at Embalse de Santa Teresa is a common recreational activity in the warmer months and is often practicable where the reservoir’s banks provide safe access. Whether bathing is officially permitted depends on local regulations and on operational or safety conditions: authorities may restrict swimming near infrastructure, intake towers or during low water or water-quality alerts. There is also typically no lifeguard service, so swimmers should exercise caution, be aware of changing temperatures and underwater hazards, and follow posted signs and municipal guidance before entering the water.
