📅 Friday, April 24, 2026
Today is unfortunately not a suitable day for a beach visit at Barrosa. With light rain falling throughout the day and the sky completely covered by thick clouds, you will find it quite gloomy and damp by the shore. The air temperature reaches a maximum of 18.1 °C, which feels cool, especially combined with the restless water conditions featuring waves of 1.3 m. Given the sea temperature of 18.1 °C, the water is too cold for comfortable swimming. The wind remains noticeable, adding to the chilly atmosphere. Please stay home or plan indoor activities instead, as the combination of wet weather and rougher water makes for a poor experience for any beachgoer today.
