Climate

Local climate is a curious mix of Mediterranean climate of the regions to the south and continental climate of the inland regions to the north, with the rain patterns resembling the Mediterranean climate, while temperature patterns are comparable to the continental one — moderately dry and hot summers temperatures may rise to 35º C and rainy, occasionally snowy, and cold winters temperatures may drop to -8º C; however with the effect of relative humidity, it can even feel bitterly colder than that in short. However unlike the typical Mediterranean climate, it can rain heavily even during the hottest month August, although these showers do not last more than 20 minutes at most. Though it’s also possible that you can encounter consecutive weeks without a single drop of rain.

Autumns are mild, long and very nice. It is the best time to swim—sea is warm, just like the air is—since the sea is usually cruelly wavy during summer but is very docile during September.
