Calculate how much water you should drink per day based on weight, activity, and climate. Liters and ounces.

Updated April 2026

Daily water target

2.8L

95 fl oz · 12 cups

Includes water from all drinks and food (food supplies roughly 20%). Add more in hot climates, when sick, or during long workouts.

What it does

A free daily water intake calculator that sizes your target based on weight and exercise — roughly 35ml per kg of body weight plus 355ml per 30 minutes of activity. Runs in your browser, no sign-up.

The “8 cups” rule is a starting guideline, not a prescription. Your real target depends on body mass, climate, activity level, and diet (water-rich foods reduce the plain-water requirement). Pair with our hydration guide for practical tactics to actually hit your number.

How to use it

  1. Enter your weight (metric or imperial).
  2. Add minutes of daily exercise.
  3. Read your daily water target in liters and ounces.
  4. Pair with a marked water bottle or bottle count to hit it.
