Hot afternoons, with some relief after dark

Days reach 25°C around 76% of the time, while 21% reach 30°C: warmth is dependable, but more demanding heat is a possibility rather than the daily norm. Put longer walks earlier in the day and leave room for shade around midday, particularly if you find heat tiring. Pack breathable clothes, sun protection and a light layer for after dark. The average night low is comfortable compared with the daytime heat, though cooler nights can fall to 15.2°C or below.

Good swimming weather, but keep plans flexible

The sea averages 22.3°C in June, making swimming a reasonable part of your holiday plan rather than something reserved for the hardiest swimmers. It can still feel fresh on entry, and the year-to-year range of 21°C to 23°C matters if you are sensitive to cooler water. There is plenty of daylight for flexible days outdoors, with about 10.8 hours of sunshine within 14.8 hours of daylight. That is not a promise of clear skies throughout: about 5 days have measurable rain. Keep a light waterproof handy and avoid making every plan dependent on sunshine. June works well if swimming and time outdoors are priorities, provided you can accept a wet day and shift plans when needed.
