Too cool for beach days, but the sun was shining brightly. Swimming in the sea was too cold. Perfect for being outside and enjoying everything. Ideal for a sun vacation. Absolutely a 5 star experience. We had an average of 15°C, so too cool for swimming. There were sunny and gray days, but it never got really summer hot. The sea water temperature was too cold for swimming. Nature was already starting to revive a bit, which made for beautiful walks.— This text is automatically translated to English
