Gradska plaža, Makarska: Weather Today

📅 Sunday, October 11, 2026
Today at Gradska plaža is a rather lackluster day for a beach trip, making it better suited for a walk along the shore than for lounging on the sand. You can expect frequent light showers throughout the day, so keep an umbrella or shelter nearby to stay dry. The skies will remain mostly full of clouds, and while the air temperature reaching 21 °C is mild, the overall dampness makes it feel a bit chilly. If you are brave enough for a dip, the water temperature is 22.6 °C, though the calm conditions are the only real benefit. With the breeze occasionally picking up, it is definitely not the ideal day for sunbathing or extended outdoor relaxation. Keep a close eye on the changing sky as you enjoy your time by the water.
