*** 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
Lac Bersau is a beautiful high-altitude lake located in the Pyrénées mountains of southwestern France, near the Spanish border. Due to its elevation of around 2,080 meters (6,824 feet), the lake’s water temperature remains quite cool, even during the summer. In warmer months, the water can reach between 10°C and 15°C (50°F–59°F), which may be refreshing for quick dips but is generally too cold for prolonged swimming. The pristine, clear waters of Lac Bersau make it a scenic spot for hiking and picnicking, and many visitors appreciate the peaceful alpine surroundings.
While swimming is not prohibited at Lac Bersau, it is typically not recommended due to the cold temperatures and lack of facilities at this remote location. The lake is popular with hikers who complete the trail through the stunning mountain landscape, so it is best enjoyed for its natural beauty rather than as a swimming destination. Visitors are more likely to cool off by splashing in the shallow areas or simply enjoying the refreshing mountain air by the lake’s edge.
