Cala Dels Canyers: Weather Today

📅 Thursday, August 20, 2026
Today is an underwhelming day for a beach trip to Cala Dels Canyers as unsettled weather dominates the coastline. You should expect intermittent light rain throughout the day, which will likely keep most sunbathers away from the sand. The skies remain largely blocked by thick clouds, though the sun will still shine through enough to warrant caution, as the UV Index reaches 6.8. With a maximum air temperature of 29.7 °C and a sea temperature of 27.2 °C, the water is warm enough for a quick dip, but the wind is quite erratic and bothersome. While the sea is calm enough for swimming, the threat of showers and the damp conditions make this a poor choice for an extended stay by the shore.
