Water Temperature: Daily Trends, Historical Records, and Forecast

❌ As of today, the minimum water temperature ranges from 47°F (8°C) to 50°F (10°C). This is still cool water, suitable only for experienced swimmers or those accustomed to cold water. Swimming in such conditions is possible, but not recommended for prolonged periods. Extra caution should be taken during extended exposure, as the cold water can cause heat loss and lead to hypothermia. For added comfort, special clothing can be used. 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

Length 320 km (200 mi)

The Samara River, a left tributary of the Dnieper, flows through the Dnipropetrovsk and Donetsk regions, forming a network of meandering channels, quiet backwaters, and small bays. It is known for its calm current and relatively warm water during the summer months. From late May to early September, the temperature in the Samara usually ranges from 22 to 27°C, and in shallow or slow-flowing sections it can reach up to 28°C. Thanks to its gentle flow and numerous sandy banks, the river is widely used for swimming, especially near settlements such as Pavlohrad, Novomoskovsk, and Pidhorodne.

The water in the Samara tends to be clear in dry, calm weather and slightly turbid after heavy rains. Many areas along the river are surrounded by forested or grassy floodplains, which provide shaded spots ideal for picnics and relaxation. The Samara offers a natural, peaceful atmosphere for summer recreation — a place where people can swim, fish, or simply enjoy the fresh water and quiet countryside landscapes.
