*** 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
Kuhurluy Lake, located in the southern part of Odesa Oblast near the Danube Delta, is a large, shallow, and mostly freshwater body connected to nearby lakes and channels. Because of its shallow depth — generally 1.5 to 3 meters — the water warms up quickly during the summer. By late June and throughout July and August, temperatures often reach 24–27°C, making it comfortable for short swims and relaxing near the shore. The lake’s calm surface and lack of strong currents create favorable conditions for bathing, especially in clear, windless weather.
Still, Kuhurluy is primarily a natural wetland area rather than a resort lake. The water can sometimes appear cloudy or greenish due to algae, especially during hot spells. Locals swim there mainly in clean, open areas where the bottom is firmer and entry into the water is gradual. Although it’s not an official swimming destination, it offers peaceful and warm conditions for those who enjoy quiet, natural places and don’t mind rustic surroundings.
