Weather
Winters are mild and can be fairly wet though the weather changes quickly here and one can have a downpour in the morning and bright sunshine by midday. The majority of rainfall falls during the months of January and February. Spring months can be very warm with temperatures rising to 27°C. The same can be said for the Autumn months too. We have been known to swim in the Atlantic at the beginning of November with outside temperatures nearing 24/25°C.
Summers are hot but not excessive. July and August can witness temperatures nearing 37/38°C but the sea breeze is always welcoming and it does tend to cool down in the evening.
The main point to bear in mind is that the climate is mild year round and rarely goes below 6°C. Therefore if you are outdoor people, you will appreciate the possibility of being active all year round.
