Province climate

Cádiz, the capital of the province of the same name in Andalusia, sits on a narrow península jutting into the Atlantic Ocean at barely 11 metres above sea level. It is considered one of the oldest cities in Western Europe. Its climate is oceanic Mediterranean, with very mild winters and moderate summers thanks to the strong Atlantic influence. The annual average temperature is about 18.2 °C, with summer highs of 28 °C and winter lows that rarely drop below 8 °C.

Annual rainfall is approximately 524 mm, concentrated between October and March, with a dry summer. Cádiz is one of the windiest cities in Spain, exposed to the levante, a hot, dry easterly wind, and the poniente, cooler and more humid. The levante can persist for days and creates a stifling atmosphere, while the poniente refreshes the afternoons. The city enjoys over 3,000 hours of sunshine per year. Frost and snow are virtually unknown phenomena.
