Caleta del Marrajo: Weather Today

📅 Friday, August 28, 2026
Today offers a challenging beach experience at Caleta del Marrajo, primarily due to very active winds that make lounging on the sand difficult. While the air temperature is a warm 26.6 °C, the persistent strong breeze and choppy, high waves mean swimming conditions are quite rough. We recommend staying clear of the water today as the sea is turbulent and unsafe for a casual dip. You will encounter occasional light mist, though the clouds are sparse and the sun remains intense, reaching a UV Index of 8.45. Even with a pleasant sea temperature of 23.3 °C, the combination of high winds and wavy conditions makes this a day to skip the beach in favor of indoor activities. Please prioritize safety and avoid entering the water under these choppy conditions.
