Warm days without constant intense heat

Expect proper warmth rather than just a mild extension of the UK summer. Days reach 25°C on 64% of occasions, but only 5% reach 30°C, so very hot conditions are possible rather than typical. Light, breathable clothes should work well during the day, with shade breaks sensible around midday if you find heat tiring. Humidity averages 72%, which can make the warmth feel a little sticky. Evenings generally call for little extra clothing, though a light layer is useful when sitting out or if you feel the cold. The coolest nights can fall to 18.2°C or below, so packing only for hot weather would be a mistake.

Good swimming conditions, with room for rainy spells

The sea is a strong reason to choose September: at an average 25.1°C, it is warm enough for swimming rather than just a quick dip. That makes a swim-focused holiday a reasonable choice, provided you stay flexible about the weather. There are about 8 rainy days during the month, so pack a light waterproof and avoid making every day depend on staying outdoors. A rainy day need not mean continuous rain, but clear weather throughout your stay is not something to count on. Sunshine averages about 7 hours a day within 12.2 hours of daylight, leaving a useful amount of bright weather for time outside. Take sun protection as well as rain cover.
