What temperature is suitable for swimming in the sea?

The generally accepted number for “can swim / not swim” is + 21 ° C. Is the temperature higher? We dive. Below? It is better to sunbathe.

Walruses, no offense. We will bypass you and start with more high degrees. Comfortable bathing water temperature for each its own, but in general, the interval limits these are:

• + 9 ° C… + 13 ° C – icy, for very hardened people. Swim for 10 minutes, no more. We ourselves in such a frozen not would get for any price.
• + 14 ° C … + 17 ° C – and again would not risk. But here on sensations. Someone’s fine, and this one is swimming here. an hour and a half.
• + 18 ° C … + 22 ° C – closer in all senses. Going into the sea which a little bit for +20, you’ll have to endure goosebumps. But then it seems warmer than air.
• + 22 ° C … + 24 ° C – the optimum water temperature. If you do not consider yourself to be frozen, your teeth will definitely not knock will be Such a sea is very refreshing in the scorching sun.
• More than + 25 ° C… + 27 ° C – fresh milk, for the sea perfect. But for fresh water in question (rises chance of catching the infection).

Is it possible to swim at 18-20 degrees?

We love to relax at the junction of the seasons, so we are accustomed to sometimes with swimming can not get lucky. In the photo we are in Turkey in May, swimming season began just with our arrival?

Not for long. For adult non-tempered people – up to 5 minutes, And, Of course, do not swim away with such parameters. Cold water may provoke seizures. Doubtful use.

When can I swim in the sea? Seasons in the countries

Good. With the permissible temperature of the water sorted out, with the child in pool went, a towel prepared. Which country beach fly?

It depends on the season (summer or winter), which fell your vacation. And if the sun beats down mercilessly in Russia, it does not mean that the coast of Vietnam will meet you the same. Therefore we look tabs below.

In compiling the tables, we take into account not only degrees in the water, but and the weather. Yes, in Thailand, for example, you can swim all year round, but What is the point if the rainy season rages on the shore?

Some countries lead to separate thematic articles – we have There are so many of them that we decided, why not to mention for comfort. And no, they do not repeat?

Summer (June – August)

In summer, in the heat, vacationers love to jump into the water with such pontoon bridges

If you are traveling in June, carefully study the division of countries into “swim the whole month” and “we start to swim with second half. “Not all coasts have time to warm up!

In July and August throughout the Mediterranean – merciless heat and stuffiness. Such that not to disappear even at night. More or less tolerable on the Adriatic (Montenegro, Croatia) and Black sea (Bulgaria).

Sea, where you can swim – table by season

Where and when to swim? Selected season and sea when water will be as pleasant as possible. Do not take into account the Andaman (Thailand), the Caribbean (Dominican Republic) of the sea and the Indian Ocean – year-round warm.

Traction in the heat will not win anything – even 15 degrees ocean

The optimal sea temperature for bathing children and pregnant women

Agree, the first rest with the family and children (newborns or years to 7) at sea is a very controversial matter. Before the trip immediately there are a thousand and one questions. At what temperature can you swim in the sea with the baby? How long? Do not get sick?

Dispel your fears. If the child is seasoned, regularly engaged in the pool, you can swim at + 22 ° C. Otherwise, water temperature should be no lower than + 23 ° C … + 24 ° C. The main thing – to monitor the condition of the baby, that in the water he is not covered with goose bumps and his lips are not blue.

If this is the first experience for a little swimmer, then the child needs to prepare. At first, the stay should not exceed 10 minutes, then gradually bring up to half an hour. After the baby’s sea baths wipe well with a towel.

It is better to go swimming in the warm sea from 8 to 11 o’clock or in the evening (after 16). The sun is not so active at this time.

As for the future moms.

Before you leave, be sure to consult with your doctor about about the possibility of marine recreation. If the specialist does not see no reason to ban water treatments, you can enjoy unhurried swims. You can not swim, provided:

– up to 12 weeks or more 34 weeks

– the presence of any complications during pregnancy

What is useful sea water?

✓ prevents stretch marks

✓ promotes blood circulation → prevention of varicose varicose veins

✓ beneficial effect on the fetus

To make a pregnant woman feel comfortable, the temperature water should not be below + 22 ° C. Normal the air temperature is not less than + 25 ° С. And the optimal time bathing under such conditions – 10-15 minutes. More is possible, but undesirable (in order to avoid hypothermia).

On the shore, be sure to dry well with a towel and a couple of minutes bask in the sun. After half an hour (judging by the state of health, Naturally), you can again go to sea.

There should have been a photo with us here, but we decided in another just show the ocean and the beach, because they do not happen much? ?

We have traveled more than 25 countries and know, if not the ocean, then several ways to save on travel. So, once we grabbed a tour to Greece for two (Rhodes) for 25 000 rubles. 11 nights, for a moment. True, according to the Fortune system, but we were lucky.

First, we recommend tour aggregators. Here You can find a ticket in the means of 4 or even all 5 stars. Adjust the filter “from cheap” or use the low calendar prices. You can also search among the burning tours!
