Climate

Overview

In winter, between June and August, temperatures range from 7°C to 18°C with pleasant, sunny days scattered between the gloomy ones. From September to November the weather is unpredictable, with anything from bright warm days to howling southeasterly storms and winds of up to 120kph. December to March can be very hot, although the average maximum temperature is only 26°C and the Cape doctor generally keeps things bearable. From March to April, and to a lesser extent in May, the weather remains good and the wind is at its most gentle.
