Plan around the heat, including after dark

Expect to dress for heat rather than pack for changeable British summer weather. Days reach 25°C on 93% of occasions, although temperatures of 30°C are less routine, occurring on 14% of days. Light, loose clothing makes sense, with more active plans kept to the morning or later in the day. Humidity averages 70%, so the warmth may feel sticky rather than crisp, particularly when you are moving about. Evenings are warm enough that cooling down can take time. Prioritise accommodation with air conditioning if warm bedrooms disturb your sleep, and avoid treating the average daytime high as a ceiling.

Good swimming weather, with shade part of the plan

The sea is a strong reason to choose July: its average temperature is comfortably in swimming territory, and the year-to-year range of 24°C to 26°C suggests little risk of a bracing dip. Rain is unlikely to dictate your itinerary, with about 1 rainy day during the month, though a completely dry stay is not guaranteed. Around 12.1 hours of sunshine a day gives plenty of scope for time outdoors without spending the hottest part of the day in direct sun. Pack sunscreen, a hat and something to cover your shoulders, and make shade breaks part of your routine rather than an afterthought.
