What Each Season Actually Feels Like
Spring (April-June) brings warm, comfortable weather and the sea warms up by late May. Summer (July-August) gets very hot, especially inland. Autumn (September) keeps warm sea temperatures with fewer visitors. Winter (December-March) is mild by European standards but too cool for swimming.
