Average Sea Temperature

If you are brave, you could at least stick your toes in the water and at the very least, you can enjoy the sunshine on the beaches.
Dress Code
You would be advised to bring some warmer clothes for the evenings but obviously during the day you would be fine to be out and about in lighter clothing. There may also be a risk of rain so keep an umbrella, raincoat or poncho handy.
