22 MAGAZINE | THE BEACH BEACH WEATHER Summer has up 15 hours of sunshine per day…Any rainstorm just comes to wash away the dust…and then the sun shines again. O ludeniz has fantastic weather. Sunny skies, temperatures in the twenties and low rainfall from March till early November. Winter weather is cool and wet with temperatures reaching 18 C in the day time and very occasionally falling to 2 C in the evenings. Summer weather can be warm, in the range of 33 C.+, but the cooling sea-breezes of the ‘meltem’ make the evenings more than pleasant. Low humidity means it rarely feels uncomfortable. In July and August by mid-day the temperature can climb into the high thirties, when it is better to keep children in the shade. At night the average is 17°C and you’ may need airconditioning in your room. The sea is warm enough for swimming all year round. The summer average water temperature is in the mid20’s while in the winter it does not fall below 18 C. until the snow melts in March. Spring is gorgeous for its show of wild flowers and autumn for its peace and flat velvety seas.
