Plage de Raguenes: Weather Today

📅 Friday, August 21, 2026
Today is an underwhelming day for a trip to Plage de Raguenes, as conditions are not ideal for a typical beach outing. With intermittent light rain falling throughout the day, the sky remains somewhat cluttered with clouds, limiting your time in the sun. It is quite breezy along the coastline, creating choppy water with noticeable wave activity that makes lounging on the sand less comfortable. The maximum air temperature will reach 21.5 °C, but with the sea temperature sitting at 18.2 °C, the water is too chilly for comfortable swimming. Overall, it is better to skip the beach today and plan your visit for when the weather stabilizes, as the combination of persistent drizzle and gusty winds will likely dampen any plans for relaxing by the shore.
