The climate of Playa Blanca (Canary
Islands / Spain)
Playa Blanca is a seaside resort located in the southern part of
Lanzarote. There is more wind here than in other popular seaside
resorts such as Costa Teguise and Playa del Carmen. Playa Blanca is
sunny and dry. Precipitation almost only falls from November till
April. Total annual precipitation figures are only 100 millimeters
which may fall in the form of heavy showers.
Temperatures in Playa Blanca are almost always pleasant. During the
winter daytime temperatures are almost always around 20 degrees
Celsius (68.0 degrees Fahrenheit). During the summer temperatures are
around 30 degrees Celsius (86.0 degrees Fahrenheit). During the summer
a quite fierce northeasterly trade wind blows which causes things to
remain pleasant. It is also the reason why Playa Blanca is a popular
sun destination.
If you rent a villa in the center of Playa Blanca you should bear in
mind that the wind may blow quite fiercely in the garden and along the
pool of your villa. We advise you to create a spot on the leeward side
for sunbathing

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:
