August Weather Averages

Sorted by popularity:

The warm July sun drifts into August, making this another month of beautiful weather in Lagos. Though it is said that July is the warmest month of the year in the region, average temperatures in August still reach an equally high 24°C this month, and only drop a single degree moving into September.

The highest temperature ever experienced in Lagos was actually in the middle of August in 2003, when temperatures of up to 40°C were recorded. However in a usual year, daily average highs are more likely to reach up to much more pleasant 28°C with plenty of warm summer sun for everyone.

August in Lagos boasts an average of 12 hours of sunshine every day. And with average night time temperatures still a very warm 20°C, it never gets too chilly at this time of the year.

Even the coldest weather ever recorded for this part of Portugal was a very warm 13°C back in 2003. But this is still far higher than many other European regions will experience on a regular basis.

Along with that sun comes clear blue skies with the chance of rain almost negligible. Only two days of the month are expected to see any rainfall at all, with up to 2mm of precipitation possible. But it is often the case that there isn't a cloud in the sky in Lagos, and rain is dim and distant memory.

Even with the long hot summer climate, humidity levels of 74% ensure the weather is still very comfortable. And with sea temperatures reaching their highest level of the year when the August sun is shining, there is always plenty of opportunity to cool off. Average sea temperatures of 23°C mean everyone wants to flock to the beach and enjoy the incredible climate in Lagos, whether they are swimming, surfing or simply soaking up the sun.

The Solar De Mos is a family-run hotel. And with only 15 rooms, it is a cosier dwelling than some of the larger hotels in the region. But you won't notice the smaller size when you get into your room. Facilities rival those of the bigger hotels which include a balcony or terrace, private bathroom, cable television, air conditioning, and minibar. Enjoy the restaurant on the ground floor that offers a mouth-watering selection of international and Portuguese specialties. Or appreciate one of their themed nights with food served on the terrace overlooking the garden and pool. All that August weather offers the perfect setting for some incredible days in Lagos.

For a low cost place to stay in Lagos, try the Lagos Youth Hostel. Thanks to the welcoming spirit of this hostel and their outstanding prices, it does get booked up early. But secure yourself a place and you can enjoy friendly hospitality clean shared or private rooms, and excellent access to all that Lagos has to offer. Lagos Youth Hostel is right in the centre of the town, which means every day is busy. And with special prices for those with a student card, this is a great place for the young.

For a romantic break in the heart of Lagos, Quinta Bonita is the place to stay. This boutique hotel is situated out of the main busy area of Lagos, set back in the beautiful mountainous region that just adds to its beauty. Exceptional grounds, an elegant poolside area and five star luxury ensure couples who stay here never want to leave. From honeymooners, for an anniversary treat or just to spend some quality time together. With regular wellness clinics and a range of beauty treatments on offer, you could come back feeling brand new.     

Thanks to the vast array of stairs you have to descend to get to Camilo Beach, many people are put off. But this simply means that, for those that make the effort, there's far more space to enjoy even in the middle of August. The wealth of caves that surround this beach offer incredible exploring potential. And even provide a little shade when the sun is at its hottest. The calm seas usually stay still, even when other beaches are a little choppy. The wonderful restaurant on the top of the beach then offers the perfect end to another perfect day.

Head down to Praia do Canavial for some beautiful golden sand in Lagos, but don't be surprised if you see more than you bargained for. This beach in the heart of Lagos is as popular with nudists as it is with visitors that prefer a little more attire. But it can make for some very interesting conversation. Even when the sea is calm in other areas, there is always the possibility of a wave or two at Praia do Canavial. But as there are no facilities on offer at the beach, any visitor must ensure they come prepared.

When it comes to Burger Joints in Lagos, there is only one name on most people's lips - Nah Nah Bah. When March comes around and the doors open for another season, this place is packed full of visitors and locals alike. Voted one of the top 50 burger joints in the world, this place is buzzing every night of the week. But with its relaxed atmosphere and incredible range of flavours, everyone feels welcome.

For live music, great drinks in a more upmarket atmosphere, Roskos is never going to let you down. The fully stocked bar offers a good range of beers and lagers. But it's the cocktails where Roskos really excel. Highly trained mixologists entertain as they serve, ensuring everyone gets a great night out. Lots of special events and karaoke, through to acoustic sets and live bands ensure there's something for everyone at this bar. Just don't turn up in your jeans or you might feel a little underdressed.

The only thing likely to let you down at Casa do Prego is the lack of table for those that don't book. Generous portions, delicious seafood and a wide variety of meat dishes mean this restaurant is always very popular especially in August. So make sure you don't miss out. Start with a delicious array of Tapas to get the taste buds flowing. The extremely helpful staff will guide you through the menu. But if you don't get a booking, there's no need to despair, Casa do Prego offer a takeaway service too.

Enjoy a walk in the warm August sun and take a trip to Ponta da Piedade to visit the bygone lighthouse that sits on its summit. The cliff trek ensures you feel the most of any breeze that is blowing from the sea, while the views from the top are simply out of this world. See the locals fishing from the cliffs or try to spot the dolphins that are often playing in the waters below. On a clear day you can see right across the ocean, and enjoy a touch of history too.

Take advantage of the warm sea water in August with a Kayak Adventure in Lagos. Take in the incredible scenery from an angle you may not have considered before. Let your friendly tour guide take you through the maze of caves that line the coastal region of Lagos. Pull up to secluded beaches to rest your arms and have a bit of a swim. And if you have kayaked so far that you don't ever think you'll get home, the escorting boat will usually be on hand to give you a tow.
