*** 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 Tambre in Galicia typically has cool Atlantic-influenced waters that vary substantially through the year. In winter the river commonly sits around 6–10 °C (43–50 °F), rising in spring to roughly 8–16 °C (46–61 °F) as snowmelt and seasonal rains moderate. Summer temperatures in calmer, shallow pools can reach about 16–22 °C (61–72 °F), though faster stretches and shaded upstream sections often remain cooler. In autumn the water usually falls back into a 10–18 °C (50–64 °F) range as rainfall increases and air temperatures decline. Lower reaches near the estuary warm slightly and may be influenced by tidal conditions, while headwaters tend to be cold year-round.
Swimming in the Río Tambre is permitted in many accessible spots but is not uniformly regulated, so local signage and common-sense safety precautions should be observed. Popular informal bathing areas exist where flows are calm and water quality is acceptable, yet strong currents, submerged rocks, variable depth, and sudden post-storm rises can make some sections hazardous. Water quality can vary with season and upstream land use, so checking recent local information or choosing designated swimming areas is advisable. In short, swimming is possible in summer and milder periods, but conditions and safety vary along the river and by season.
