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 Szczecin Lagoon (Oder Lagoon) is a large, shallow body of water located along the border between Germany and Poland, connected to the Baltic Sea. Due to its proximity to the sea, the water temperatures in the lagoon are heavily influenced by the Baltic's climate. During the summer months, the water temperature can range from 18°C to 22°C (64°F to 72°F), making it an inviting location for swimming, particularly in the warmer months. In spring and autumn, temperatures tend to drop to around 10°C to 16°C (50°F to 61°F), while winter sees the lagoon cooling to temperatures below 5°C (41°F), making swimming less practical during those times.
Swimming in the Szczecin Lagoon is popular in summer, especially near designated swimming areas and beaches around the towns of Szczecin and Swinoujscie. The lagoon's calm waters and shallow depths make it ideal for water sports like kayaking, sailing, and windsurfing, in addition to swimming. There are numerous designated recreational zones along the lagoon, and it's important to follow local safety guidelines, especially in areas where water quality might vary or where tidal movements could be present.
