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 river Žitava flows through southwestern Slovakia and is known as a smaller, calm river with a natural character. In the summer months, its water temperature usually rises to around 18–23°C, depending on weather conditions and the depth of the river in a given spot. Because of its modest size, the water warms up faster than in larger rivers, which makes it more pleasant for cooling off during hot days.
Swimming in the Žitava is possible in certain stretches, especially in shallower and calmer parts where the current is not strong. However, it is more often used for quick dips, wading, or simply refreshing by the riverbank rather than for long-distance swimming. Locals enjoy the peaceful atmosphere by the river, and it serves as a natural alternative to busier lakes or pools in the region.
