*** 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 del Perdiguero experiences noticeable seasonal variation in surface water temperature. In winter months the surface typically cools to around 4–8 °C (39–46 °F), while spring brings gradual warming into the 8–15 °C (46–59 °F) range. Peak summer temperatures at the surface commonly reach roughly 18–24 °C (64–75 °F), making the water more comfortable for brief immersion, but deeper layers remain colder. In autumn the surface usually falls back toward 10–16 °C (50–61 °F). These values are approximate and can change with yearly weather patterns, wind, and inflow from mountain streams, which can cause sharp local variability and cold pockets.
Swimming at the Embalse del Perdiguero is conditionally possible but depends on local regulations, signage and water quality at the time. Some reservoirs in the region permit recreational bathing in designated areas when authorities judge conditions safe, whereas others impose restrictions to protect drinking-water supplies, boating operations or for safety reasons (hidden obstacles, sudden depth changes, or cold-water shock). If you plan to swim, check current notices from local authorities, avoid areas with boat traffic, be aware that even warm surface temperatures can mask cold undercurrents, and consider that summer offers the most comfortable and safest thermal conditions.
