Warm days without much intense heat
The average daytime high suits walking around the city more than seeking shade all afternoon. Days reaching 25°C account for just 7%, so do not assume June will bring sustained hot weather. Even so, keep sun protection handy and take breaks from direct sunshine at midday. Nights average 19.7°C, making light clothing a sensible starting point for evenings, with a light layer if you tend to feel chilly when sitting outside. Humidity averages 78%, so loose, breathable fabrics are a better choice than heavy clothing. Overall, June suits travellers who like warmth but do not need high temperatures to make a holiday feel summery.
Dry enough for flexible plans, but a bracing sea
Rain is a small concern in June, though dry averages are not a promise for every day of your stay. You can make outdoor plans without building the holiday around wet-weather alternatives; a light waterproof is more proportionate than bulky rainwear. There are about 8.0 hours of sunshine within 13.8 hours of daylight, leaving plenty of scope to spend time outside without expecting clear skies throughout. Swimming needs a more cautious judgement. The sea varies from 21°C to 22°C between years, so it may take some getting used to. If you dislike cool water, treat swimming as an optional part of the trip rather than its main purpose.
