I see a temperature map of the sea around Italy reaching above 30 C today. Obviously the sea water hasn’t this cozy temperature deep beneath the surface yet, maybe in a few decades, so where is the measurement taken depth wise?

Satellites with infrared cameras.
In addition to the satellites, we also have many buoys and monitoring stations
In general, measurements like that of ocean temperature are sea surface temperature. However, the ocean mixed layer (can vary between 10-100 metres) can be typically uniform in temperature and salinity
