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.

The Río Pisuerga, which flows through Castile and León, has water temperatures that change markedly with the seasons and with local conditions such as altitude, flow rate and upstream reservoirs. In winter the river is typically cold, often in the range of about 4–8 °C (39–46 °F), while spring temperatures commonly climb to roughly 8–14 °C (46–57 °F) as snowmelt and runoff increase. By summer the most swimmable stretches can reach approximately 18–24 °C (64–75 °F), and in sheltered, slow-flowing reaches temperatures occasionally approach 26 °C (79 °F). Autumn sees a gradual cooling back to roughly 12–18 °C (54–64 °F). Local variations are frequent: mountain-fed upper reaches stay cooler year-round, while lowland or impounded sections warm more in summer.
Swimming in the Pisuerga is allowed in many places but depends on local rules and water quality; some municipalities designate bathing areas and others prohibit access near dams, intakes or navigation zones. Water quality can be variable because of agricultural runoff and urban discharges, so authorities may close sites after heavy rain or for contamination. Even where swimming is permitted, colder seasons carry risks of cold-water shock and stronger currents, so summer is generally the safest period for bathing in the river provided local advisories are observed.
