When is it better to go

Portugali rannahooaeg kestab juuni algusest septembrini, mil õhutemperatuur jõuab +30 ° C ja veetemperatuur - +19 ° C. Tuleb meeles pidada, et Atlandi ookean ei soojene hästi ja jahtub kiiresti, mugavama temperatuuri austajad saavad ujuda looduskivist basseinides, mida on rannikul üsna palju.
