The best climate in the world

On the coast of Grand Canaria, the maximum temperatures are around 21 ° C, in December to around 22 ° C. Minimum temperatures drop to 15 ° C. In winter, however, the temperature can also drop to 13 ° C. In some cases the temperature may fall even lower, but in the last 12 years the minimum night temperature has not fallen below 10 ° C.

Another situation is in higher altitudes, where from December to February average maximum temperatures can only be around 10 ° C and nighttime around 5 ° C. While the coast of the island occurs in the winter for 6 to 7 days with rain, so in the mountains, it can be up to 15 days. Mountains are more likely to accumulate moisture, so there is a thicker cloud, which is the source for more rainfall.

From March to May, rainy days are rapidly decreasing. Historically, the daily maximum for the past 12 years has only 15 mm of precipitation. Again, the rule is that in the mountains the precipitation is a little bit more. Average air temperatures are rising slightly slower due to the colder Atlantic Ocean, as we mention it before the lower temperature of the ocean is in March. In the spring gradually increases the average airspeed. UV radiation begins to be dangerous in April, and without a sunscreen with a high UV factor, you should not be able to move around the Sun at all.

Wind and drought. That is how we could characterize the summer of Grand Canaria. The average airspeed is twice as high as in the winter. The windiest month is July when the average speed is around 41 km/h. At the same time, this period is very dry. In June, there could be one day with rain but in July there is practically no rainfall. Temporarily increased cloud cover may be at the top of the mountains.

In July and August, four tropical days per month occur on average. The summer days are much more frequent, especially in July and August, and of course, they are a tropical night. The highest peak temperature occurred in the last 12 years on August 12, 2010, when 39 ° C was measured. The North Part and city of Las Palmas could be more cloudy. Local people famously call this period “Panzo de Burro” – The belly of Donkey.

The most ideal climate is here in the autumn when the island is tropical. Especially September and in October there are still very warm nights, thanks to the warm ocean that, despite shorter days and fewer sunshine hours is warming the island. In October, the temperature of the water has the highest temperature and can go up to 23 ° C. At the same time, humidity increases and rainy days grow.

However, these are only short storms or storms that may be more intense in the central part of the island. The average wind speed is rapidly declining. Also in November, you can spend an average of 10 summer days and 8 tropical nights on the island.
