The temperature hovers around 35 degrees, which is surprising, but good for those who like bright sunshine. Cooling is desirable. Dry and little wind, you have to take that into account.
SanderAlthough some days were ideal for relaxing by the pool, unpredictable rain prevented other activities. Not ideal, but bearable.
