Features of the tourist season
Today tens of thousands of tourists come here, and the season in Sardinia lasts from the middle of spring until the fall. As in any other resort, the season is high and low. This, of course, is directly related to the temperature of air and water in Sardinia by months. About the peculiarities of each season of the year in these territories we will tell in more detail.
Winter in Sardinia
To describe by months the temperature on the island of Sardinia should start from the winter, as the weather in this quietest and least populated season is radically different from our winters. Even in the harshest days of the day you on a thermometer will not see a mark below 14 degrees of heat. At night, the air cools to 6-7 degrees.
- December. This month on the island is the most unfavorable for visiting Sardinia, unless, of course, you like to get wet under cold rains and enjoy the north winds.
- January. Practically it does not differ from the December weather, but the temperature drops by another 2-3 degrees. In the mountains during this period, snowfalls begin. These snow hats for another four to five months will please the eyes of the few guests of the island.
- February. The weather is slowly but surely changing the character. The rains stop, the air warms up to +15 degrees in the daytime. Most hotels, restaurants and souvenir shops are still closed.
Spring in Sardinia
This time, when nature begins to slowly "wake up", the column on the thermometer rushes upwards, pleasing the inhabitants of the island with sunlight and warmth. But by the evening I still want to wear a sweater or a windbreaker, because +9 is not quite warm yet.
- March . Air is heated to a maximum of +15, and water - up to +14, which is too early for a bath. However, the first tourists, bored for the warmth, are already starting to settle in hotels.
- April . In the afternoon it is somewhat warmer (up to +18), but the water is still cold, no more than +15 degrees.
- May . This month the official tourist season opens. All hotels, entertainment centers, restaurants and shops, updating the range and ready for the season, are ready to receive guests.
Summer in Sardinia
Dry, hot and even stuffy - so you can describe the summer period on the island. About 12 hours a day, tourists are mercilessly burned by the hot sun, but in the evening it's so nice to stroll along the embankments and see the sights.
- June . +26 in the afternoon, +16 at night and +20 in the sea - these are the temperatures in this month. Excellent time for a beach holiday.
- July . Unbearable heat during the day (sometimes up to +40!) Makes you think about going to the mountains, where it is somewhat cooler. But tourists do not stop, in July there are a lot of them. And this is not surprising - the high season!
- August . The best time to relax on the sea coast. However, to enjoy the sun and the sea alone will not work, after all with the sunrise all the beaches are filled with carefree vacationers. It's time to think about visiting "wild" beaches, which in Sardinia a lot.
Autumn in Sardinia
Until the autumn of the island the weather favors rest. It's not so stuffy, so sightseeing and sightseeing is what you need!
- September . This month is the continuation of the velvet season, beginning in the last days of August. Guests slowly release the hotels, but real connoisseurs know that it is in September that Sardinia demonstrates its charms in all its glory.
- October . The hotel owners say goodbye to the departing guests, and the weather rains and winds reminds of the approach of winter.
- November . Although the water in the sea is still quite warm (+ 22-23 degrees), but the sun very rarely breaks out from behind the clouds. Winter is coming, so the stormy life on the island is calmed down until the next tourist season.
