Climate<\/h2>\n
<\/p>\n

Malta’s climate is typical of the Mediterranean and is strongly influenced by the sea. The Maltese Islands have a pleasantly sunny climate with a daily average of around 12 hours sunshine in summer going down to 5 to 6 hours in mid-winter.<\/p>\n

Summers<\/strong> are hot, dry and very sunny. Day-time temperatures in summer are often mitigated by cooling sea breezes. <\/p>\n

Spring<\/strong> and autumn<\/strong> are cooler, except when the occasional Scirocco wind from Africa brings unseasonally high temperatures and humidity. <\/p>\n

Winters<\/strong> are mild, with the occasional short cold spells brought about by the north and north-easterly winds from central Europe.<\/p>\n

Annual rainfall<\/strong> is low, averaging 568mm a year. Bathing in the sea is quite possible well into the ‘winter’ months, and the peak beach season can last until mid- to late October. <\/p>\n
