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 Zusam is a river in the Swabian region of Bavaria, Germany, that flows through the district of Augsburg before joining the Lech River. The water temperature in the Zusam varies throughout the year, with colder conditions in winter and warmer temperatures during the summer months. In the winter, the water temperature typically ranges between 3-5°C (37-41°F), which is too cold for swimming. During the summer months, however, the water temperature can rise to a more comfortable 15-20°C (59-68°F), making it more suitable for swimming.
Swimming in the Zusam is possible in certain sections of the river, especially where the flow is calm and the water is shallow. The river is not as widely known for swimming as larger rivers, but it offers a tranquil and scenic environment for those who prefer a less crowded setting. The water quality is generally good, but it is important to ensure that the water conditions are safe, particularly after heavy rainfall, which may increase the flow and make the water murky. Always check local swimming recommendations and be cautious of stronger currents in deeper sections.
