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 Linge is a river in the central Netherlands, flowing through the provinces of Gelderland and South Holland. It is a relatively calm river, making it more suitable for recreational activities like boating and swimming compared to larger rivers. The water temperature in the Linge varies seasonally, with winter temperatures typically ranging from 4°C to 6°C (39°F to 43°F), while during summer, the temperature can reach 18°C to 22°C (64°F to 72°F), which is more comfortable for swimming.
Swimming in the Linge is possible, especially during the summer months when the water is warmer. However, it is important to be aware of certain factors before swimming. The Linge is often used by small boats, which may pose a risk to swimmers, although the river is generally not as busy with large commercial vessels as other Dutch rivers. Additionally, water quality can fluctuate, especially after heavy rainfall when runoff from nearby agricultural land can affect water cleanliness. While the Linge offers pleasant swimming opportunities in certain areas, always ensure to swim in designated swimming zones where water quality is monitored.
