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 del Boquerón in Extremadura is a reservoir whose water temperature fluctuates with the region’s continental Mediterranean climate. In winter the surface can cool to roughly 6–12 °C (43–54 °F), making the water very cold for prolonged immersion. Spring temperatures typically rise to about 12–18 °C (54–64 °F) as the reservoir warms, while summer sees the warmest conditions, often between 20–26 °C (68–79 °F) at the surface on sunny days. In autumn the water usually drops back to roughly 14–20 °C (57–68 °F) as air temperatures decline. These ranges vary with depth, recent rainfall and the specific year’s weather patterns: deeper water remains colder and sudden winds or inflows can change surface temperatures quickly.
Swimming in Embalse del Boquerón is practiced by locals and visitors, particularly in summer when surface temperatures are most comfortable, but whether it is formally allowed depends on local regulations and signage. Restrictions can apply because the reservoir may serve as a water supply, have boating activity, or present safety risks such as steep banks, variable depth and cold shock in cooler months. Water quality can also vary seasonally. If you plan to swim, check municipal rules and posted notices, choose sheltered, monitored spots when available, and be aware that outside high summer the temperature can be cold enough to make prolonged swimming unsafe.
