WarmWeather in Benalmadena in June

Is June a good time to visit Benalmadena?
Yes - it is one of the better months: warm days, little rain and long sunny days. The best months for Benalmadena on our scoring are July, August, June; months averaging 25°C or more: Jul, Aug.
Warm days, with little rain to plan around
Expect warmth rather than relentless heat. Days reach 25°C about 43% of the time, but only 2% reach 30°C, so June suits travellers who enjoy being outside without wanting very hot afternoons. There is still reason to take midday sunshine seriously: about 11.3 hours of sunshine within 14.5 hours of daylight leaves plenty of exposure. Pack sunscreen, a hat and light clothing, and leave room for a shaded lunch rather than filling the brightest part of the day with activity. Rain is unlikely to dominate your plans, with about 1 rainy day during the month on average. That makes outdoor plans a reasonable bet, though not a guarantee of an entirely dry stay.
The sea is cooler than the air suggests
The sea is the clearest compromise in June. Its average temperature of 19.3°C is bracing, and the usual year-to-year range of 18°C to 20°C stays below the comfortable swimming benchmark of 22°C. If you dislike a chilly entry, think short dips rather than lingering in the water; warm air does not necessarily mean warm swimming. Evenings also call for a little flexibility. The average night low is 16.6°C, while the coldest 10% of nights fall to 14.2°C or lower. A cardigan, light jumper or jacket earns its place in your luggage, alongside daytime summer clothes. June works best if sunshine matters more to you than warm water or consistently warm nights.
