Water Temperature: Daily Trends, Historical Records, and Forecast
❌ As of today, the minimum water temperature ranges from 47°F (8°C) to 50°F (10°C). This is still cool water, suitable only for experienced swimmers or those accustomed to cold water. Swimming in such conditions is possible, but not recommended for prolonged periods. Extra caution should be taken during extended exposure, as the cold water can cause heat loss and lead to hypothermia. For added comfort, special clothing can be used. It is important to note that these swimming tips and recommendations apply only in good weather. When the air temperature is below 68°F (20°C), and sometimes even below 77°F (25°C), swimming can be unpleasant even with relatively high water temperatures.

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 Werse is a serene river flowing through the Münsterland region in North Rhine-Westphalia, known for its gentle currents and scenic surroundings. Water temperatures in the Werse vary throughout the year, typically ranging from 15°C to 20°C during the summer months, making it moderately warm and inviting for water-based activities. During colder months, temperatures can drop below 10°C, which is less suitable for swimming. The river's calm flow and accessibility in certain areas make it a popular choice for canoeing, kayaking, and other recreational activities.
While swimming in the Werse is possible in some stretches, it is not officially designated as a swimming river, and there are no established bathing spots with safety measures in place. The water quality is generally good, but swimmers should be cautious of potential underwater obstacles and variable depths. Most visitors prefer engaging with the river through paddling or relaxing by its banks rather than swimming extensively. For a safer and more enjoyable experience, checking local guidelines and choosing areas with minimal currents is advisable.
