Praia das Furnas: Weather Today

📅 Thursday, September 17, 2026
Today at Praia das Furnas is a challenging day for a beach visit, best suited for enjoying the rugged coastal scenery rather than relaxing by the water. While there is plenty of sunshine to enjoy, the conditions are quite restless. The wind is blowing strongly throughout the day, creating choppy water with significant waves that make swimming dangerous and discouraged. With a maximum air temperature of 25.5 °C, it remains pleasant for walking along the shore, but please take note of the high UV Index of 6.6, which calls for consistent sun protection. Given the sea temperature of 17.1 °C, the water is much too cold for comfortable swimming. Stick to the sand to soak up the sun while keeping a safe distance from the active surf.
