I have field in Entity:

@Column(name = "BILL_DATE")
private LocalDate billDate;

And my system work with oracle and posthresql. In posgresql this columt has type timestamp but in oracle - date. When I try start server with postgeSQL I get error:

wrong column type encountered in column [bill_date] in table [charges]; found [timestamp (Types#TIMESTAMP)], but expecting [date (Types#DATE)]

if I add annotation @Temporal(TemporalType.DATE) I get another error:

Caused by: org.hibernate.AnnotationException: @Temporal should only be set on a java.util.Date or java.util.Calendar property

But I do not want use java.util.Date and java.util.Calendar. How to solve this problem?

Both Date in Oracle and Timestamp in PostgreSQL store date and time. Indeed according to PostgreSQL Documentation you should map them either to LocalDateTime if the timestamp is w/o the timezone, or to OffsetDateTime if it's with the timezone.

Hibernate 5 should support Java8 Time API, anyway if you're using JPA, you could implement AttributeConverter 

import javax.persistence.AttributeConverter;
import java.sql.Timestamp;
import java.time.LocalDate;

public class LocalDateConverter implements AttributeConverter < LocalDate, Timestamp > {

    @Override
    public Timestamp convertToDatabaseColumn(LocalDate attribute) {
        return attribute != null ? Timestamp.valueOf(attribute.atStartOfDay()) : null;
    }

    @Override
    public LocalDate convertToEntityAttribute(Timestamp dbData) {
        return dbData != null ? dbData.toLocalDateTime().toLocalDate() : null;
    }

}

Then you can use 

@Convert(converter = LocalDateConverter.class)
@Column(name = "BILL_DATE")
private LocalDate billDate;
