Your June weather guide
WarmWeather in La Palma in June
June is a good time for La Palma if you want dry, sunny weather without much heat, rather than a hot beach holiday. Average daytime highs are 21.5°C, with nights at 18.7°C, so the appeal is comfortable warmth rather than a dramatic change from a UK summer. The catch is the sea: at 21.6°C, it still feels bracing.

Comfortable warmth, not guaranteed heat
Pack light clothes for the daytime, but leave room for a light layer for evenings. The average night stays mild, although cooler spells can make sitting outside feel less comfortable. Days reach 25°C only 3% of the time, so June is not the best choice if proper heat is your priority. Compared with London, the average daytime high is just 1.9°C warmer: the temperature difference is modest. Humidity averages 76%, which may make the air feel less fresh than the temperatures suggest. You can generally plan around warm rather than hot conditions, while still taking shade breaks when the midday sun feels strong.
Dry days and plenty of time outdoors
Rain is unlikely to shape a typical June holiday. With about 0 rainy days and 10.4 hours of sunshine a day, outdoor plans have a good chance of going ahead without much rearranging. That is not a guarantee of uninterrupted sunshine or no rain, so keep some flexibility rather than treating every day as certain. The 13.8 hours of daylight give you room to spread activities out and take a break around midday. Bring sun protection even though the air temperature is moderate. For time by the water, the dry weather is helpful, but sunny afternoons do not turn the sea into a warm bath: allow for a bracing dip rather than assuming long, comfortable swims.
