What's the Weather like in San Agustin in May
As May brings San Agustin and the Canary Islands firmly into the spring season beautiful weather prevails. The island resort town sees a small increase of rainfall this month as compared to the previous month, but equal amounts of sunshine grace the resort, and finally sea temperatures are rising. This month is a great time of year to plan a trip, as you will enjoy some of year's best weather while avoiding the destination's largest crowds.
Temperature
Five months into the year and the daily average temperature hasn't changed one single degree. This month the average remains at 19°C. The month's average high temperature remains steady at 24°C while the average low temperature actually drops a degree from last month to 13°C. It's another month of mostly comfortable temperatures with slightly cooler nights, and so be sure to pack accordingly when planning a visit this month.
Rainfall
While rainfall picks up this month when compared to April, it is still extremely mild. Only 4mm of accumulated rainfall is expected to come down across the span of three days of rain. When compared to Majorca, another island destination with similar temperatures this month but with an expected 36mm of accumulated rainfall across the span of four days, the amount of rainfall here this month is minimal.
Average Sunshine Hours
Holding steady with last month, the average daily amount of sunshine remains long and strong at eleven hours. A visit during this month will mean plenty of time to soak up some rays while on the beach or exploring the restaurants and shops about town.
Average Sea Temperature
One of the best occurring trends this month is that sea temperatures are warming, meaning that more visitors are going to be swimming up and down the sandy coast. The Atlantic waters should rise to 20°C. While this doesn't represent the warmest waters of the year, that occurs in September when the ocean temperatures rise to 23°C, they should be comfortable for most to enjoy a plunge in the salty sea.

Eating & Drinking Out
Restaurant Anno Domini
Modern cuisine is indebted to the French culinary history. French chefs pioneered much of what happens in kitchens and restaurants around the world today. It's no coincidence then that some of the best food on a Spanish island is found coming out of a French restaurant. Restaurant Anno Domini is that restaurant. Intense flavours are balanced in harmony with subtle ingredients; light and flaky sea bass in a robust white wine sauce, for instance. This restaurant is a must try for any visiting foodies.
Restaurant San Agustin
The website of Restaurant San Agustin describes the environment here as both rustic and modern. And you can expect to find the same qualities married in the food they serve. They specialise in fresh seafood dishes, but have a large range of selections on offer. The prices are particularly affordable and make Restaurant San Agustin the kind of place that is often visited multiple times by visitors on short holidays.
Restaurante O'Canastro Gallego
Restaurante O'Canastro Gallego is a simple establishment serving up exceptional Galician seafood dishes. Enjoy the unpretentious local feel of the place and be surprised by the quality of food and service. This place doesn't pander to tourists and therefore it's most frequented by locals. On the menu you will find a wide array of offerings fished from the nearby waters: octopus, monkfish and sole to name a few. Another non-tourist characteristic of this restaurant are the menu prices. A great choice for a fresh seafood feast.
