Water Temp

Hello,

We will be in St.Petersburg next week, wondering what the water temp is in the area? Is it warm enough to swim? Is there a beach where the water is warmest? Thanks much!

The waer temperature is on aveage 64 degrees this time of year. That can be subjective on whether it is warm enugh to swim. I cannot say there is a water temperature on the beaches that might be warmer either.

What will the water temps be in early May? Thanks!

Here is a site with a recent temp reading, and monthly averages. http://www.nodc.noaa.gov/dsdt/cwtg/egof.html

Been to Fort De Soto Beach today. Weatherman said water temp would be 72 degrees. Up to you to decide whether that%26#39;s warm enough for you.

How accurate is that NOA website? It says that the water temp in Naples is over 85 degrees, and St. Pete is almost 79 degrees - sound way too high ...???

That may be correct. The Gulf is warmer than the Atlantic temperatures
