Water Temperature: Daily Trends, Historical Records, and Forecast
❌ As of today, the minimum water temperature ranges from 50°F (10°C) to 54°F (12°C). The water is slightly warmer, but still cool for most people. Swimming in such conditions is possible, but for most people, the time spent in the water should be limited to avoid hypothermia. Even experienced swimmers may feel discomfort if they stay in the water for too long. To improve comfort and safety, a wetsuit can be used. 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
The Crișul Alb river (Romanian: Crișul Alb, Hungarian: Fehér-Körös) originates in the Apuseni Mountains in Romania and flows through western Romania and eastern Hungary. Like most rivers flowing from mountainous regions to plains, its temperature regime varies significantly along its course. In the upper reaches in the mountains, the water is generally colder and remains cool even in summer, while in the lower reaches in the plain areas, its temperature significantly increases, especially during hot months.
The average annual water temperature in the mountain zone can be around 4∘C, but downstream, closer to the confluence with other rivers (like near Gyula in Hungary), it can exceed 17−18∘C in summer, making it suitable for swimming. Due to its passage through both mountainous and flat landscapes, the river offers different experiences: the upper sections are typically better for cooler leisure activities, while the lower, warmer parts are preferred for recreational swimming and bathing in summer.
