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
Wielki Staw, located in the Karkonosze Mountains in the Lower Silesian Voivodeship, is one of the largest and most picturesque mountain lakes in Poland. The lake, nestled at an altitude of over 1,000 meters (3,280 feet), has cold, crystal-clear waters that remain cool even in the summer months. During the warmer seasons, the water temperature usually hovers around 10°C to 15°C (50°F to 59°F), which is quite chilly for swimming. The cold temperatures, combined with the high altitude and rugged terrain, make it a challenging spot for casual swimmers.
While the lake is an incredibly beautiful place to visit, swimming in Wielki Staw is not recommended for most people due to its cold temperatures and the lack of proper facilities for swimming. The area is protected and part of the Karkonosze National Park, so activities are limited to those that respect the natural environment. However, visitors can enjoy the lake’s serene beauty by hiking around it or simply soaking in the views. The lake is a favorite spot for photographers, nature enthusiasts, and hikers, especially during the summer months when the surrounding scenery is at its most vibrant.
