*** 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 Río San Pedro in Andalusia experiences notable seasonal variation in water temperature depending on altitude, flow and local exposure. In cooler, mountain-fed reaches winter temperatures typically sit around 8–12 °C (46–54 °F), while lowland stretches can be slightly warmer. Spring sees a rise to roughly 12–18 °C (54–64 °F) as snowmelt and rainfall increase flows; summer brings the warmest conditions, often 18–24 °C (64–75 °F) in sheltered pools and slower sections; autumn temperatures generally fall back to about 14–19 °C (57–66 °F). Local factors such as depth, shading by vegetation and recent rainfall can cause short-term fluctuations, with snowmelt or heavy storms producing colder, faster flows even in warm months.
Swimming in the Río San Pedro is possible in many accessible, calm stretches during the warmer months, but whether it is allowed depends on specific local rules, water quality and safety considerations. Some sections are within protected natural areas or near hydraulic infrastructure where bathing is prohibited to protect habitats or for public safety. Even where swimming is permitted, currents, underwater hazards, variable depth and the absence of lifeguards make caution essential; after heavy rains water quality and turbidity can decline. Visitors should follow signage, local guidance and common-sense precautions before entering the water.
