COSTA BLANCA WEATHER IN

The weather in summer on
the Costa Blanca is typically very hot with little to no rainfall. Summer
temperatures in most Costa Blanca towns will mostly be between 25 degrees
Celsius to 35 degrees Celsius during the day. Temperatures on the Costa
Blanca rarely drop below 15 degrees Celsius.
In August the weather on
the Costa Blanca can be almost unbearably hot with some days reaching 40
degrees Celsius or more. Fortunately if you are on the Costa Blanca coast
you will most likely have cooling sea breezes.
Because the humidity is low
you won't feel the temperature is as high as it really is. Do take
precautions and keep out of the sun between 12 o'clock and 3 o'clock.
Always wear a high sun cream factor.
If you are renting or
hiring a villa or apartment on the Costa Blanca in the summer you may well
want to look to rent a villa or apartment with air conditioning or at
least one with fans otherwise you may have trouble sleeping at night,
especially if you are coming on holiday from a northern European country
where the temperatures are much lower.
COSTA BLANCA WEATHER IN
THE WINTER
The weather on the Costa
Blanca in winter is very mild compared to northern Europe. Most winter
days will be clear and sunny. The temperatures can vary greatly in winter,
one day it can be over 20 degrees Celsius and you will be walking around
in your t-shirt, on another day it can be 6 degrees Celsius and feel very
cold.
If you are visiting the
Costa Blanca in winter be careful to ensure that if you rent a villa or
apartment that it has some form of heating, preferably central heating.
Houses in Spain are built so that they are cool in summer but that
unfortunately means they are not insulated and can be very cold in winter.
Even in the winter it
doesn't rain much on the Costa Blanca with November being the wettest
month. The exception is when the Costa Blanca experiences a 'Gota Fria' -
this happens when the temperature suddenly drops resulting in incredible
torrential rain and flooding to many areas of the Costa Blanca. The towns
on the coast of the Costa Blanca are hit especially badly as the Gota Fria
also creates huge waves and high tides which often destroy the beaches.
COSTA BLANCA CLIMATE
The World Health
Organisation describes the climate of the Costa Blanca as one of being the
best in the world. The summers are hot but not too hot due to the cooling
breezes and the winters are mild with many clear blue sunny days. The
Costa Blanca climate and weather is very healthy especially for sufferers
of arthritis. The areas around Torrevieja which is surrounded by natural
salt lakes are especially good.
The Costa Blanca is very
mountainous and so you can find this accounts for big differences in the
weather from town to town depending on what valley they are situated in.
The weather especially varies from the coastal towns of the Costa Blanca
to the towns inland from the coast in the mountainous areas.
