*** 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 Stör River, located in the northern part of Germany, primarily flows through the Schleswig-Holstein region. This river is relatively shallow and is known for its natural environment, which includes tranquil waters surrounded by wetlands and forests. During the warmer months, the water temperature in the Stör River can range from 15°C to 22°C (59°F to 72°F), making it a more comfortable option for swimming compared to some other cooler rivers in the region. However, its temperature is generally cooler than lakes or coastal waters, which may make swimming less appealing during colder seasons.
Swimmers in the Stör River should be cautious of several factors, such as potential water quality variations due to agricultural runoff, especially after heavy rains. The river is relatively less trafficked by swimmers, but there are occasional recreational areas near towns along the river, where people do enjoy wading or swimming. As the river meanders through a rural landscape, it is not equipped with many dedicated swimming zones, so individuals who wish to swim should ensure they are aware of local water conditions and safety guidelines.
