*** 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 Wesenitz is a charming river located in the eastern part of Germany, primarily flowing through Saxony. Its waters are typically cool throughout the year, with summer temperatures ranging between 14–20°C, depending on the weather and flow conditions. The river meanders through picturesque landscapes, including the scenic areas of Saxon Switzerland and parts of the Elbe Sandstone Mountains, making it a popular destination for outdoor enthusiasts.
Swimming in the Wesenitz is possible but not widespread. The river’s shallow depth and modest flow make it suitable for wading or cooling off in certain stretches during warmer months. However, it is not officially designated as a swimming area, and swimmers should exercise caution due to uneven riverbeds and occasional natural debris. Nearby recreational facilities or lakes often provide more suitable alternatives for swimming in the region.
