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 Pantano de Foix, a reservoir in Catalonia formed by damming the Foix river, shows the typical seasonal temperature swings of Mediterranean inland waters. In winter (December–February) surface temperatures commonly sit around 8–12 °C (46–54 °F). Spring brings warming into the 12–18 °C (54–64 °F) range as air temperatures rise and inflows moderate. By summer (June–August) surface waters can reach about 20–26 °C (68–79 °F) on warm days, though deeper layers remain considerably cooler. Autumn temperatures usually fall back to roughly 14–20 °C (57–68 °F). These values are approximate and can vary with weather, rainfall, and reservoir depth; thermal stratification means surface readings can overstate the chill experienced after diving or at depth.
Swimming in the Pantano de Foix is generally discouraged or restricted. The reservoir plays a role in local water supply and irrigation, and authorities commonly limit bathing to protect water quality and for safety reasons related to variable depths, submerged hazards and sudden cold layers. Where local regulations do permit access, it tends to be limited to supervised or designated spots and subject to seasonal rules; visitors should always check current signage and municipal guidance before entering the water.
