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 Valuengo, a reservoir in Extremadura, often experiences marked seasonal variation in surface water temperature. In winter the lake typically cools to around 8–12 °C (46–54 °F), while spring sees a steady rise to roughly 12–20 °C (54–68 °F) as air temperatures warm and inflows increase. Peak warmth is usually reached in July and August, when surface readings commonly range from about 22 to 28 °C (72–82 °F). During autumn the water begins to cool again, returning to the spring range of roughly 12–20 °C (54–68 °F). These figures are approximate and can vary with weather patterns, depth and local conditions such as inflow from rivers or recent rainfall.
Swimming at Embalse de Valuengo is possible during the warmer months, but its permissibility and safety are conditional. Some areas are used informally for bathing by locals when temperatures are comfortable, yet official rules can vary because reservoirs serve multiple functions — water supply, irrigation, and ecosystem conservation — and may have restrictions to protect water quality. There is often no lifeguard service, and hazards like steep banks, submerged obstacles and boat traffic can present risks, so checking local signage and municipal regulations before entering the water is advisable.
