Abstract The article presents the results of studies of the temperature regime of the Daginsky thermal springs. Daginsky thermal springs are the most famous and visited on Sakhalin Island (Russia). In the fall of 2019, their reconstruction and arrangement of the surrounding landscape began. As a result of the reconstruction of the main thermal springs, their hydrological and temperature regime was violated, the water temperature dropped. In 2020, in the springs most popular with visitors (Aleksandrovsky, Tsentralny, Mechta), the temperature became several degrees lower, which led to the termination of their use. In 2021, after the completion of the design of the spring bath and the surrounding area, the temperatures increased. In April 2021, the temperature of the Patriot spring was 40.5 °C, the Partizan spring 38–39 °C, the Central spring 36–39 °C, the Aleksandrovsky spring 34.6–36.0 °C, the Mechta spring 34.4 °C (at the bottom up to 45.5 °C), Molodost spring 35 °C (at the bottom up to 37–41.3 °C).
