Summary
Full Forecast

Today is certainly not an ideal day for a trip to the beach, as the conditions are better suited for a brisk coastal walk rather than relaxing by the water. While the sky will remain mostly clear and bright throughout the day, the air remains quite chilly with a maximum temperature of 13.8 °C. You will notice a persistent and rather strong breeze that will make it feel even colder, so you should definitely dress in warm layers if you head out. The sea is extremely cold at 11.8 °C and definitely not suitable for swimming. Additionally, the waves are quite choppy and rough, making the shoreline feel restless. It is a day to enjoy the fresh sea air and the views, but keep your towel and swimsuit packed away.
