Todays weather:
The Algarve sailing seasons lasts 12 months. It's never too hot nor too cold, with steady
and predictable winds.
During the summermonths we have a lot of sun, relatively moderate temperatures (due to the influence of the Altantic Ocean temperatures seldom go over 30 C), and a a northerly wind. The Azores High Pressure and the Iberian Low Pressure systems cause this northerly airflow, which increases during the afternoon due to the warming of the Iberian peninsula.
In spring and autumn temperatures average 20 C, with still a lot of sunshine although so now and then the edges of a Atlantic Low Pressure system can reachthe Algarve.
On the weathermaps in the winter the orange coloured SW edge of Europe is a commonsite. With more Atlantic Lows, the winter sailing conditions in the Algarve are similar to those of a Western European summer.
