What's The Weather Like In Vilamoura In August

August is the busiest and hottest month in VilamouraPortugal, following on from the sweltering temperatures of July. The Mediterranean weather continues, drawing in tourists from all over the world who are in search of sun, sea, and sand.

Temperature

The average daily temperature in August is 24°C, but during the hottest part of the day the mercury can soar well above 30°C.
