The climate of Sanxenxo (Spain)
Sanxenxo is a small tourist city located in the northwestern part of
Spain in the Pontevedra province in the vicinity of the city of Vigo.
During the winter this seaside resort is almost completely abandoned
giving it the appearance of a ghost town. During the summer many
tourists travel here to enjoy everything Sanxenxo has to offer. In the
vicinity of the city several beaches can be found. Several of these
beaches on the Atlantic Ocean are very popular among water sports
enthusiasts. From Sanxenxo a ferry sails to the island Isla de Ons.
Sanxenxo has a moderate maritime climate strongly influenced by the
Atlantic Ocean. Because of this influence extremes in weather are
uncommon in Sanxenxo. However, because of the influence of the
Atlantic Ocean temperatures are much lower here during the summer than
in other Spanish coastal towns. During the winter heavy rainfall is
not uncommon. Summers are dry. The temperature of the sea hardly ever
rises above 20 degrees Celsius (68.0 degrees Fahrenheit).

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression
of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain
period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather,
extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate
information for each month of the year:
