Lloret De Mar Climate - Conditions vary considerably, ranging from the typical Mediterranean heat and sun in the south of mainland Spain to the cooler and wetter north coast of Spain, and the refreshing mountain air of the Pyrenees and their heavy snowfalls during winter. Madrid is sweltering in midsummer, when temperatures soar, and the Leveche, a hot wind from Africa, can provide oven-like conditions in the south of Spain. There is little rain in the summer in Spain apart from the occasional thunderstorm. Winters can be surprisingly cool. The Balearics are fanned by gentle sea breezes, but can get very hot during the summer. Rainfall tends to be light in the summer, but spring and autumn can be unpredictable. The Canaries are probably the closest destination to the UK to offer guaranteed winter sun, although rain and fog are not entirely unknown in the islands.
