📅 Friday, May 15, 2026
Today is a mediocre day for a visit to the beach, as unsettled weather makes for a rather inconsistent experience. While you might enjoy some bright intervals, scattered showers are likely to pass through, so keep an eye on the sky and be prepared to pack up quickly. The air temperature reaches a pleasant 22.4 °C, but with the water temperature sitting at 18.5 °C, the sea remains far too chilly for a comfortable swim. The breeze is mostly gentle, though sudden shifts in the air can occur. Because the sun is quite strong, with a UV Index of 7.8, remember to use plenty of protection even when clouds are present. Overall, it is not the ideal day for lounging by the shore, so plan your trip carefully if you decide to head out.
