Expect heat that lasts into the evening

The daytime average is not just a warm spell: every June day reaches 25°C, and 45% reach 30°C. With humidity at 81%, this is weather for a slower pace, particularly around midday. Plan more active time for the morning, leave room for shade breaks and pack loose, light clothing. Evenings are warm rather than refreshing, so you are unlikely to want the layers you might use on a June evening at home. Air conditioning is a sensible accommodation priority if warm nights disturb your sleep. June suits travellers comfortable with persistent heat more than those who prefer cooler conditions for being active.

Good swimming temperatures, but keep plans flexible

At 28.5°C, the sea is warm enough for comfortable swimming rather than a bracing dip. That makes June appealing if time in the water is central to your holiday, but the wet weather is a real compromise. Rain need not mean losing a whole day outdoors, yet you should not build plans around uninterrupted sunshine. There are about 4.9 hours of sunshine within 13.4 hours of daylight, so long days do not translate into clear skies throughout. Keep swimming and outdoor time flexible, carry a light rain cover and have something to do under shelter. This is a better fit for relaxed plans than a tightly scheduled outdoor holiday.
