*** 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 Una River, which partly flows through Croatia along the border with Bosnia and Herzegovina, is famous for its clear and cold waters. Even in the height of summer, the temperature of the Una usually stays between 18–22°C, which feels refreshing compared to many other rivers and lakes in the region. The coolness comes from its source in the mountains and the continuous flow through rocky terrain, keeping the water clean and lively.
Swimming in the Una is possible and often enjoyed during hot summer days, though the water is noticeably cooler than in lowland rivers. In calmer sections with accessible banks, locals and visitors take dips to cool off, while stronger currents are better suited for activities like rafting rather than swimming. The beauty of the river, with its turquoise color and natural surroundings, makes swimming here not only refreshing but also a unique experience.
