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 small Green Lakes area around Balsys (Žaliųjų ežerų paplūdimys) experiences typical Lithuanian lake temperatures that vary strongly with the seasons. In spring (April–May) surface water commonly ranges from roughly 4–15 °C (39–59 °F) as ice melts and the sun warms shallow bays. Summer months (June–August) are the warmest, with many years showing 17–24 °C (63–75 °F) at popular swimming spots; shallow, sheltered parts can warm even higher on hot, calm days. In autumn (September–October) temperatures usually fall back toward 8–14 °C (46–57 °F), and in winter the lake often approaches freezing or becomes ice-covered, with surface values near 0–4 °C (32–39 °F).
Swimming at Žaliųjų ežerų paplūdimys is commonly practiced in the warm season and local beach areas are used for recreational bathing. Whether swimming is allowed at any given time depends on official water-quality checks, posted notices and safety measures: authorities may close bathing areas temporarily because of pollution, algal blooms (cyanobacteria), strong winds or ice. Lifeguard presence and designated swimming zones are seasonal, so visitors should follow local signage and municipal guidance before entering the water.
