Today is a fair day for a trip to the coast, though it is better suited for lounging on the sand than taking a dip in the water. You can expect plenty of bright sunshine throughout the day, so remember to pack high-factor sunscreen as the UV Index is 7.6. While the air feels pleasant with a maximum temperature of 19.2 °C, the sea remains quite chilly at 16.6 °C, making it too cold for comfortable swimming. A light breeze will be present, occasionally picking up a bit, which might keep things feeling fresh while you relax by the shore. With calm waters and clear skies, it is a lovely day to enjoy the seaside atmosphere, provided you stay dry and stick to sunbathing.
