Water Temperature: Daily Trends, Historical Records, and Forecast
⚠️ As of today, the minimum water temperature ranges from 54°F (12°C) to 60°F (15°C). The water is significantly warmer, and swimming becomes possible for most people. However, caution may still be required for prolonged stays in the water, as extended exposure can cause discomfort. This is a suitable temperature range for short swims and for those accustomed to cooler water. For more comfortable swimming, it is recommended to use proper gear. 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 Kumanovska Reka (Kumanovo River) is a relatively small river that flows through or near the city of Kumanovo, a key urban centre in the northern part of North Macedonia. Its characteristics, including water temperature, are typical of a smaller river in a continental climate. In the cold winter season, the water temperature of the Kumanovska Reka is very low, often dropping to between 2∘C and 6∘C. During the summer months, the water can warm up in the slower and shallower sections, typically reaching temperatures between 18∘C and 22∘C in the afternoon heat.
Swimming in the Kumanovska Reka is not permitted and is actively discouraged by local authorities primarily due to significant pollution concerns. As the river flows through a densely populated area, it is heavily affected by untreated municipal and industrial effluent, severely compromising its hygienic quality. Consequently, the river water is deemed unsafe for recreational use, including swimming, as it carries a high risk of waterborne diseases and infection. The river's utility is limited mainly to drainage, and it is not a designated bathing area.
