Playa de Cofete: Weather Today

📅 Saturday, April 25, 2026
Today is a challenging day for a relaxing beach visit, so you might want to reconsider your plans. While there is plenty of sunshine, the conditions are quite restless due to strong, blustery winds that will likely make lounging on the sand uncomfortable. The ocean is particularly rough today, featuring high, energetic waves that make entering the water dangerous and ill-advised. With an air temperature of 21.1 °C and a sea temperature of 19.4 °C, it remains far too chilly for a comfortable swim. Additionally, the sun is very strong with a UV Index of 8.4, so please prioritize heavy sun protection if you do head out. Overall, the combination of high winds and choppy surf makes this a day better suited for viewing the coast from a distance rather than swimming or sunbathing.
