Cabrón: Weather Today

📅 Thursday, May 7, 2026
Today is a rather lackluster day for a trip to Cabrón, as the conditions are far from ideal for a relaxing time by the water. You can expect a persistent light drizzle and heavy cloud cover that will keep the sun mostly hidden. With a maximum air temperature of 20.4 °C and a sea temperature of 20.5 °C, the water remains too cool for comfortable swimming. Strong, blustery winds are expected throughout the day, creating choppy waves that make lounging on the sand quite unpleasant. Although the UV index reaches 8.4, the lack of sunshine makes it feel much gloomier than the numbers suggest. It is definitely a day to skip the beach and find indoor activities instead, as the combination of spray and wind will likely ruin any outdoor plans.
