What's The Weather Like In Vilamoura In September

Marking the end of the Portuguese summer, September in VilamouraPortugal, is slightly cooler than the hotter summer months that precedes it. However, it is still pleasantly warm and, as it empties out as the summer holidays draw to a close, it is one of the best times to visit Vilamoura to enjoy soaring temperatures without the crowds.

Temperature

August is the hottest month in Vilamoura, so the cooler average temperatures of 22°C in September are a welcome change. The air is still lovely and warm, though, with temperatures often passing 27°C during the hottest parts of the day, providing the perfect climate for a late summer break. Temperatures are unlikely to dip below 17°C, so even the evenings are extremely mild.

Jumpers and cardigans are not necessary in September, but don't forget your sun cream and a hat! The hot Portuguese sun is still very prevalent despite summer essentially being over, so wear lightweight clothing to keep the heat at bay. Temperatures stay consistent throughout the month, meaning you'll experience warm weather if you visit at the beginning or the end of September.

Rain

Rainfall is on the up in September as the resort heads into autumn. On average, 14mm falls throughout the month, so it's unlikely you'll get caught in any downpours but it's best to pack an umbrella just in case.

Sunshine Hours

Despite the decline towards winter, September in Vilamoura sees around 9 hours of sunshine a day. The sun rises just as early as in August but it starts to set earlier, too.

Sea Temperature

There's still plenty of time to hit the beach and explore the resort, though. And, having had all summer to warm up, the sea sits at a very pleasant 21°C. At this time of year, the sea temperature is perfect for casual swimmers, as well as anyone wishing to try out some watersports. The Atlantic breeze begins to pick up again in September, providing ideal waves for kitesurfing and windsurfing.

September is a particularly pleasant month to visit Vilamoura. The crowds have died down after the peak of the summer, but the Mediterranean temperatures remain warm and steady. The sea is extremely pleasant, and the cool breeze that is beginning to pick up provides necessary relief from the hot Portuguese sun.

Praia do Trafal

Located right on the waterfront, it has uninterrupted views across the Atlantic Ocean, and serves up a mouth-watering selection of Thai dishes, including chicken dumplings, crispy crepes, soy beans, Pad Thai, and a variety of curries.

Casa do Largo

For an upmarket dining experience, head into the Old Village where you'll find Casa do Largo, a great little restaurant serving a variety of international cuisines.
