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
Vodní nádrž Orlík is a large reservoir on the Vltava River, situated in southern Bohemia, known for its scenic surroundings and recreational opportunities. In summer, water temperatures along the reservoir’s edges usually reach around 20–24 °C, which makes it suitable for swimming, wading, and other water activities. In spring and early autumn, the water is cooler, typically around 14–18 °C, so bathing is more refreshing and usually shorter for most people.
Swimming at Orlík is possible in several designated areas along the shore, where beaches and gentle slopes make access to the water easier. While the reservoir is generally safe for swimming, some areas are deeper and may have stronger currents near the dam or in channels used by boats, so caution is important. Many visitors enjoy spending the day near the shore, combining swimming with picnicking and relaxing by the water.
Beyond swimming, Orlík Reservoir is popular for boating, sailing, and fishing, which gives the area a lively and active atmosphere during summer. Its combination of calm waters in sheltered bays, warm summer temperatures, and natural surroundings makes it a favored spot for families and outdoor enthusiasts looking to enjoy the water and the surrounding countryside.
