Today is a decent day for a coastal visit, though perhaps better suited for a scenic walk than a full day of swimming. You can expect a mix of sunshine and passing clouds throughout the day, providing a pleasant balance for those who prefer not to be under constant direct sun. With a maximum air temperature of 24.8 °C, it will feel quite comfortable, but please keep in mind that the UV Index is 7.4, so remember your sun protection. The sea remains quite brisk at 17.6 °C, making it too cold for a comfortable swim. The breeze is light and steady, ensuring calm conditions by the water with very gentle movement on the surface. Enjoy a relaxing time by the shore, but keep your towel handy for lounging rather than planning for a dip in the water.
