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
Lake Velence, located between Budapest and Lake Balaton, is one of Hungary’s warmest lakes thanks to its shallow depth and sunny climate. During the summer months the water temperature often rises quickly, frequently reaching 24–28°C, and in hot periods it can even go beyond 30°C. This makes it especially popular for families and those who enjoy warm water swimming. In spring and autumn, the lake cools down faster than deeper waters, but on sunny days it can still be pleasant for a dip.
Swimming possibilities around Lake Velence are excellent, as the shoreline is well developed with public beaches, resorts, and designated bathing areas. The shallow water near the shore is safe for children, while further out it provides enough space for swimmers who prefer longer distances. Besides swimming, the lake is also popular for sailing, kayaking, and other water sports, offering a lively yet relaxed summer atmosphere.
