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 Rio Nabão, flowing through the Santarém District around Tomar, typically shows marked seasonal variation in water temperature influenced by rainfall, depth and local shading. In winter months (December–February) surface temperatures are generally around 8–12 °C (46–54 °F). Spring (March–May) brings gradual warming to roughly 12–18 °C (54–64 °F). In summer (June–August) shallower, sunlit stretches can reach about 18–25 °C (64–77 °F), though deeper or spring-fed pools remain cooler. Autumn (September–November) commonly sees temperatures recede to roughly 14–19 °C (57–66 °F). These numbers are approximate: short-term weather, upstream flow, and local microclimates can push temperatures outside these ranges.
Swimming occurs in parts of the Nabão, especially where local authorities or communities have identified calmer, accessible stretches for bathing, but it is not uniformly permitted everywhere. Whether swimming is allowed depends on municipal regulations, signage and current water-quality assessments; some urban or constricted sections may be unsafe due to currents, submerged obstacles or pollution. Lifeguard presence and formal monitoring vary by site and season, so swimmers should obey posted notices, check recent water-quality information and be mindful of variable depth and flow. For a safe experience, choose officially designated bathing areas when available and avoid unsupervised or fast-flowing reaches.
