*** 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.

The Agly River, located in the Pyrénées-Orientales and Aude departments of southern France, flows from the Corbières mountains to the Mediterranean Sea near the coastal town of Le Barcarès. This river is generally cool, especially in its upper reaches, where mountain streams feed into it, keeping temperatures around 10-14°C (50-57°F) during the spring. In the summer months, the water warms considerably in the lower, flatter regions, reaching about 18-22°C (64-72°F), making it suitable for recreational activities, including swimming.
There are several appealing swimming spots along the Agly, particularly in the summer when the temperatures are warmer. Near Saint-Paul-de-Fenouillet, the river carves through scenic gorges with natural rock pools that are popular for a refreshing dip. The Agly Gorge offers shaded areas and pools with calm, clear water, ideal for cooling off during a hike. Additionally, closer to the Mediterranean, some parts of the river have shallow, warmer waters that are suitable for wading and family-friendly swimming areas. However, caution is recommended in certain areas with stronger currents or deeper sections.
