How this works

Real data, honestly counted

For each of the 274 destinations we take every day from 1 January 1991 to 31 December 2020 - about 11,000 days - and compute the average high, average low, how often it tops 25°C, how many days it rains and the record extremes for each month. Sea temperatures come from NOAA satellite data. That is why our numbers can differ from a tour operator's brochure: we do not round up.
