Water Temperature: Daily Trends, Historical Records, and Forecast
❌ As of today, the minimum water temperature ranges from 41°F (5°C) to 47°F (8°C). This water temperature is still quite low, and swimming in such conditions may only be comfortable for hardened individuals. It is recommended to limit the time spent in the water to avoid hypothermia. For those not accustomed to cold water, it is better to refrain from swimming. However, if you decide to enter the water, it is advisable to wear a warm wetsuit for protection against the cold. 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
The Shpolka River, flowing through Cherkasy Oblast, is a small tributary that gives the town of Shpola its name. Because of its modest size and shallow depth, the river warms up quickly in summer, often reaching 22–24°C during hot weather. This makes the water pleasant for short swims and for cooling off, although the river is not large enough for wide swimming areas like in bigger rivers.
Locals sometimes use the calmer sections of the Shpolka for bathing, especially in spots where the banks slope gently into the water. However, the river is more often appreciated for its natural atmosphere, fishing opportunities, and as a quiet retreat rather than as a major swimming place. Still, on a hot summer day, the Shpolka provides a refreshing option for those who enjoy relaxing in natural surroundings.
