Kalavojna Beach: Weather Today

📅 Monday, May 18, 2026
Today is an underwhelming day for a beach visit, as thick fog blankets the coast and creates a rather gloomy atmosphere. While the air temperature will reach 19.5 °C, the lack of clear sunshine makes it feel quite cool, and the sea temperature is a chilly 17.2 °C, which is far too cold for comfortable swimming. You will notice gentle breezes throughout the day, and the water remains perfectly calm. Because the UV index is reaching 7.05, you should still wear protection if you spend time outdoors, even though the sky is obscured. Overall, the conditions are not ideal for sunbathing or water activities, so you might prefer to plan your beach outing for a day with better visibility and warmth.
