*** 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 Aude River, flowing through southern France from the Pyrenees to the Mediterranean Sea, experiences notable variations in water temperature due to seasonal and regional climate changes. In winter, the Aude's temperature can range between 5–8°C (41–46°F), especially in the colder upper reaches of the river. During the summer, temperatures increase to around 18–22°C (64–72°F) in the lower sections, making certain spots more suitable for recreational activities such as kayaking and canoeing.
In the river’s upper courses, the colder water and faster flow support diverse fish species, while the milder waters of the lower river influence plant growth and allow for some riverside tourism. However, the water's cleanliness and temperature vary by location and season, so it’s wise for visitors to consult local recommendations if considering swimming.
