*** 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 Niers River flows from the Lower Rhine region in Germany into the Netherlands, providing a scenic and peaceful setting through rural landscapes. Water temperatures in the Niers vary with the seasons; in winter, temperatures range from 4°C to 8°C (39°F to 46°F), while in summer, they can rise to about 18°C to 22°C (64°F to 72°F). These warmer months offer a more comfortable experience for those who enjoy water-based activities.
However, swimming in the Niers is generally not recommended. The river’s narrow width, moderate currents, and presence of underwater plants and debris can make it unsuitable for safe swimming. In both Germany and the Netherlands, designated lakes and ponds offer safer and more enjoyable alternatives for swimming. The Niers is better suited for kayaking, canoeing, and fishing, allowing visitors to appreciate its natural beauty while staying safe on the water.
