⚠️ As of today, the minimum water temperature ranges from 54°F (12°C) to 60°F (15°C). The water is significantly warmer, and swimming becomes possible for most people. However, caution may still be required for prolonged stays in the water, as extended exposure can cause discomfort. This is a suitable temperature range for short swims and for those accustomed to cooler water. For more comfortable swimming, it is recommended to use proper gear. It is important to note that these swimming tips and recommendations apply only in good weather.

*** 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 Thaya River, flowing through South Moravia before crossing into Austria, is known for its cool and winding character. Because much of its course runs through forested valleys and shaded areas, the water tends to stay relatively fresh even during hot summers. In July and August, temperatures usually range from 16°C to 21°C, depending on the stretch of the river and recent weather. Compared to reservoirs or ponds in the region, the Thaya remains on the cooler side, offering a refreshing escape rather than warm bathing conditions.
Swimming in the Thaya is possible, though it is more of a natural adventure than a typical beach experience. Access points vary, with some stretches offering calm pools suitable for wading or short swims, while other parts have stronger currents and rocky beds. Locals often use quiet spots along the banks to cool off, while the river is equally popular for canoeing and kayaking, thanks to its scenic course. For those who appreciate natural swimming in a river setting, the Thaya offers a mix of clear, brisk water and beautiful surroundings, especially in the sections flowing through nature reserves and historic towns.
