Warm days without frequent extreme heat
Expect weather that feels hot rather than mild, especially when you are out in the midday sun. Days reach 25°C on 65% of occasions, so light clothing, sun protection and access to shade make sense. Humidity averages 71%, which may make the warmth feel closer than the temperature alone suggests. Evenings stay warm too, with an average night low of 21.7°C, so you are unlikely to need heavy layers for routine outings. A light extra layer is still sensible for cooler nights. This is a good fit if you enjoy warmth but would rather not build your holiday around coping with very high temperatures.
A warm sea, with room for wet-weather plans
The sea is a strong reason to choose September: at an average of 25.3°C, it is warm enough for comfortable swimming rather than a bracing dip. Sunshine averages about 7.3 hours a day, leaving useful scope for outdoor plans, though you should not expect uninterrupted blue skies. About 7 days have measurable rain, so pack a light waterproof and leave some flexibility over when you swim or spend time outside. Do not assume that morning or afternoon will always be the drier choice. If guaranteed dry weather is your priority, the chance of rain is the main compromise; if warm water matters more, September makes sense.
