Mar Del Plata: Weather Today

📅 Sunday, September 20, 2026
Today is unfortunately a poor day for visiting the beach and you should consider alternative plans. Expect persistent light rain throughout the day, creating a damp and chilly atmosphere that is far from ideal for relaxing by the water. The air temperature will reach a maximum of 20.6 °C, but with significant cloud cover, it will feel quite cool. Additionally, the sea is very cold at 11.2 °C and is definitely not suitable for swimming. While the wind is generally moderate, there may be sudden brief intervals of stronger breezes, and the water remains somewhat choppy with noticeable waves. It is simply too wet and chilly for a typical day of sunbathing or water activities.
