📅 Friday, September 18, 2026
Today is certainly not the right day for a beach visit, as conditions are quite poor and potentially dangerous. The sky is filled with thick clouds and you should expect thunderstorms throughout the day, so please stay away from the shoreline for your safety. With the risk of heavy rainfall and sudden, intense weather changes, outdoor activities are strongly discouraged. While the sea temperature is 25.9 °C, the incoming storms make the water entirely unsafe for swimming. Air temperatures will peak at 23.3 °C, though it will feel quite unsettled due to the wind and rain. Please prioritize your safety and plan your visit for a much clearer day when the weather has stabilized.
