Dress warmly and in layers for your trip to Jinzhou in January. A good base layer system works wonders. Start with good thermal underwear, add something warm like a fleece sweater, then finish with a waterproof jacket on top. Dry conditions mean you won't need to worry about rain protection. Expect water temperatures of around 2°C (36°F), which is definitely too cold for comfortable swimming. Your luggage space is better used for other items. Don't forget sun protection, sunglasses, sunscreen, and a hat. These are all good ideas with this much sunshine.
