Water Temperature: Daily Trends, Historical Records, and Forecast
⚠️ As of today, the minimum water temperature ranges from 65°F (18°C) to 68°F (20°C). This is already quite warm water, which is ideal for most people. Swimming becomes comfortable, and prolonged stays in the water do not cause discomfort. This temperature is perfect for family trips and for those who prefer warmer water. It is also comfortable for water sports such as surfing or swimming. 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 Devoll River (Lumi i Devollit) in Berat County shows noticeable seasonal variation in water temperature because it is fed by mountain streams and influenced by reservoir releases. In winter the water is cold, often around 0–8 °C (32–46 °F) in open stretches and colder near inflows; spring temperatures typically rise to roughly 6–16 °C (43–61 °F) as snowmelt and rainfall increase flow. By summer surface temperatures in slower, shallower parts can reach about 18–25 °C (64–77 °F), though faster channels and deeper pools remain cooler. In autumn the river cools again to roughly 10–18 °C (50–64 °F) as air temperatures fall and flows increase.
Swimming in the Devoll is possible in calmer sections and some reservoir areas, but it is not universally managed or supervised. Legal access and safety depend on local rules, private land, and the presence of hydroelectric dams and reservoirs that alter flow and can create strong currents, sudden releases, or restricted zones; signs or local authorities may prohibit entry in those places. Water quality varies with upstream activities and weather, and cold temperatures outside midsummer raise hypothermia risks. Anyone considering swimming should assess current conditions, heed posted warnings, and avoid fast-flowing or regulated-release zones for safety.
