Proper summer warmth, with some hotter days

Pack for hot weather rather than a mild city break: 76% of June days reach 25°C, so lightweight clothing should get more use than extra layers. The catch is that comfortable warmth can tip into heat, with 18% of days reaching 30°C and the warmest days reaching 31°C or more. Plan longer walks for the morning and leave room for a shaded break around midday, especially if heat tires you out. Evenings are generally mild enough for light clothing, but a thin layer is sensible if you tend to feel chilly when sitting outside after dark.

Swimming is a reasonable part of the plan

The sea averages 22.1°C in June, making swimming a reasonable expectation rather than something reserved for hardy swimmers. There is still a difference between warm air and warm water: expect some freshness as you get in, particularly if you prefer a heated pool. The year-to-year sea temperature range is 21°C to 23°C, so June does not guarantee the same feel every visit. For travellers who want to combine time in the city with swims, the balance works well. If very warm water is essential to your holiday, the sea temperature is the main reason to temper your expectations.

Mostly dry, with plenty of usable daylight

Rain is unlikely to dominate a June trip, with about 3 rainy days across the month, but a completely dry stay is not guaranteed. Keep outdoor plans flexible rather than organising the whole holiday around avoiding showers. There are about 10.7 hours of sunshine within 14.8 hours of daylight, giving you room to take a midday break without feeling you have lost the day. Sun protection and a hat deserve priority in your packing; a light waterproof is a useful backup rather than the centre of your wardrobe. This weather suits an outdoor-focused break, as long as you pace yourself in the heat.
