*** 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 Vils River, located in southern Germany, is a relatively small river that flows through the regions of Bavaria, eventually joining the Danube River. The river is well known for its clean water and tranquil environment, making it a nice spot for outdoor activities like kayaking, fishing, and hiking. When it comes to swimming, the water temperature in the Vils varies throughout the year, depending on the season. In the spring and autumn months, the temperature is usually quite cool, ranging from 5°C to 12°C (41°F to 54°F), which makes it unsuitable for swimming for most people. During the summer, however, the water temperature tends to rise to more comfortable levels, ranging from 15°C to 20°C (59°F to 68°F), making it a more viable option for swimmers seeking a refreshing dip.
The Vils is not a particularly fast-flowing river, so the currents are generally mild, especially in calmer stretches. This makes swimming relatively safe in sections of the river with slower flow. However, it’s important to note that there may still be some areas where the water flow is stronger, particularly after heavy rain or during spring snowmelt. Swimmers should always be cautious and aware of local conditions, especially since the river passes through varying terrains and has some sections that can be quite deep. Although the Vils isn't a major swimming destination, it offers a great experience for nature lovers and those seeking a quiet swim in a peaceful environment.
