*** 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 Pesnica River flows through northeastern Slovenia, running across vineyards, fields, and small settlements before joining the Drava. As a lowland river, its temperature is strongly influenced by the season and weather. In spring it stays cooler, around 12–15°C, but in summer the shallower sections can warm up to 20–24°C, which makes the river noticeably milder than alpine streams. This gives it some potential for bathing, although it is not widely used as a swimming river.
Locals occasionally enjoy short swims or simply cooling off in calmer spots during hot days, but the Pesnica is better known for its tranquil landscape and agricultural surroundings than for water recreation. Its relatively gentle flow in certain stretches allows for safe wading or dipping, yet most people experience the river more as a pleasant natural backdrop than as a regular bathing place.
