Water Temperature: Daily Trends, Historical Records, and Forecast
⚠️ As of today, the minimum water temperature ranges from 54°F (12°C) to 60°F (15°C). The water is significantly warmer, and swimming becomes possible for most people. However, caution may still be required for prolonged stays in the water, as extended exposure can cause discomfort. This is a suitable temperature range for short swims and for those accustomed to cooler water. For more comfortable swimming, it is recommended to use proper gear. It is important to note that these swimming tips and recommendations apply only in good weather. When the air temperature is below 68°F (20°C), and sometimes even below 77°F (25°C), swimming can be unpleasant even with relatively high water temperatures.

*** 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
Toddy Pond in Maine experiences marked seasonal shifts in water temperature typical of small northeastern lakes. In spring the surface often runs cold, roughly 35–55°F (2–13°C) as ice melts and run-off cools the water. By summer, surface temperatures commonly warm to about 68–75°F (20–24°C), and on hot afternoons can reach into the upper 70s to around 80°F (25–27°C), while deeper water remains much cooler, often 40–50°F (4–10°C) beneath the thermocline. Autumn brings a steady cooling back toward the 50–60°F range (10–16°C) before freeze-up; in winter the pond typically approaches 32°F (0°C) under ice and is effectively unsuitable for normal swimming.
Recreational swimming at Toddy Pond is commonly practiced during the warm months because summer surface temperatures are within comfortable ranges for bathing and paddling. Whether swimming is formally allowed depends on access and local rules—many shorelines and public access points permit swimming, but private property, posted advisories, or water-quality notices can restrict use. Safety considerations are important: cold deeper water, variable visibility, lack of lifeguards, and hypothermia risk at lower temperatures mean swimmers should use caution, avoid solitary swims, and check local guidance before entering the water.
