This page provides information on the current water temperature in the Guadalope River, trends, monthly ranges and the forecast for the coming days.
Current Water Temperature
Water Temperature in the Guadalope River today is 28.1°C.
Water Temperature: Daily Trends, Historical Records, and Forecast
✅ As of today, the minimum water temperature is above 82°F (28°C). This is very warm water, which may feel almost hot to most people. Swimming in such conditions is perfect for those seeking relaxation and comfort in the water. These waters are often preferred for relaxation in hot weather, as the water temperature does not cool the body significantly. However, it is important to remember that in such warm waters, caution is necessary, as prolonged exposure without rest can lead to overheating. 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.

The Guadalope (Spanish: Río Guadalope) shows noticeable seasonal variation in water temperature because it runs through a semi-continental Mediterranean climate and passes reservoirs and narrow gorges. In winter the river commonly cools to roughly 4–8 °C (39–46 °F) in its faster, shaded stretches and slightly warmer in stiller pools. Spring temperatures usually rise to about 8–14 °C (46–57 °F) as snowmelt and rains feed stronger flows. In summer the warmest shallow sections and embaymented areas can reach 18–26 °C (64–79 °F), while deeper riffles remain cooler. Autumn values typically fall between 12–18 °C (54–64 °F) as inputs decline and air temperatures drop. Local factors such as altitude, flow rate, shading and reservoir releases make these ranges approximate rather than exact.
Swimming in the Guadalope is possible in many stretches and in designated reservoir beaches, and is often practiced in summer when temperatures are most comfortable; however access and legality depend on local municipal rules, protected-area restrictions and safety considerations. Some reaches are unsafe because of strong currents, rapid level changes below dams, or poor water quality after heavy rains or agricultural runoff. Where swimming is permitted, visitors are advised to heed signage and seasonal advisories; authorities sometimes restrict bathing to protect ecosystems or for public safety.
