Climate
Barcelona enjoys a wonderful climate with hot summers
and cool winters. The ideal months to visit the city, the Costa
Brava, and the nearby resorts of Sitiges and Vilanova are May, June
and September, when visitors can expect good weather. In August,
despite the shade in the tree-lined boulevards, locals desert
Barcelona for the coastal resorts to escape the heat. January is
the coldest month, with top temperatures averaging 55°F (13°C),
while August is the hottest, with an average high of 82°F
(29°C).
