You should plan your activities elsewhere, as persistent and heavy rainfall is expected throughout the day, making conditions quite soggy and unpleasant for lounging on the sand. The breeze is lively and accompanied by strong sudden pushes of air, which will likely make a beach umbrella more of a nuisance than a help. With the waves reaching a moderate height, the water remains a bit restless. If you still decide to head out, please be aware that the sun is quite strong, with a UV Index of 6.95, even through the clouds. While the sea temperature is a warm 27.5 °C, the overall weather makes it a day better suited for indoor relaxation than coastal recreation.
