Expect heat that lasts into the evening

Light clothing is the sensible starting point, with shade breaks built into your day rather than long stretches of activity at midday. Temperatures reach 30°C on 33% of days, so hotter afternoons are a realistic part of a July stay, not just an outside possibility. The warmest days can reach 32.6°C or more. Move longer walks towards the morning and leave yourself somewhere cool to retreat to later. Evenings are generally warm enough for light clothes, although a light layer gives you flexibility on cooler nights. If warm bedrooms make sleeping difficult, accommodation with air conditioning is a sensible priority.

Very little rain, but the sea is still refreshing

Rain is unlikely to dictate your plans, so July works well if you want to spend much of the day outdoors without regularly rearranging things around showers. There are about 12.6 hours of sunshine daily, making sun protection and access to shade more useful priorities than wet-weather kit. That sunshine does not mean bath-warm water, though. The sea averages 21.9°C, with a year-to-year range of 21°C to 24°C, so how comfortable swimming feels can vary. Expect a refreshing dip rather than guaranteed warmth. If you feel the cold easily in water, keep your swimming plans flexible rather than assuming long, leisurely sessions will appeal.
