Field notes
Atlantic breeze keeps summers from turning into Madrid-style ovens — expect 23–25°C peaks rather than 35°C+. Winter rain is real but gentle (Nov–Jan are wet but rarely below 10°C). The shoulder months — April through June and September through October — are the postcard version everyone moves here for.
