What is Barcelona’s typical climate like?
Barcelona sits on the northeast coast of the Iberian Peninsula, sheltered by the Collserola hills and open to the Balearic Sea. Winters are mild (12–15 °C) and summers warm to hot (28–31 °C), but the sea breeze often knocks a few degrees off the peak. The city gets most of its rain in autumn and early spring, while July and August are reliably dry.
