The weather in Murcia is consistently warm and mild, and is said by some to be the best weather in Spain. Summer temperatures go to 40 degrees Celsius, perfect for swimmers and sun lovers, but the weather is great during all of the other seasons as well. In winter, you can expect the temperature to hover about 10 degrees Celsius.
Because of its warm weather and unique location on the Segura River, this region is a veritable greenhouse for fruits and vegetables. The river flows through agricultural section, irrigating farms that produce wonderful fruits, vegetable, and flowers. The grapes and olives from the area produce great wines and olive oils. Be sure to partake of the fresh fruit and vegetables when you visit.
There is little rainfall in summer in this area of the Alicante, only .7 inches in June to .22 inches in August. This leaves the summer days hot and sunny for swimming and sunbathing.
Spring is a lovely time to spend here; if you prefer not to have the heat, and you want to avoid crowds, you couldn't pick a better time. The temperature is mild, but not hot, about 21 to 26 degrees Celsius in the day and falling to 8 to 13 degrees in the evening. And there is still little rain, even though spring is the rainy season in so many other places. During the spring, the average monthly rainfall is between .5 inches and .65 inches.
Autumn is an ideal time to vacation in Murcia, since the temperatures in early fall are still almost as warm as the summer temperatures, but the crowds are gone, so you can enjoy all the beaches more easily. Even when the temperature starts to come down in later fall, it is still pleasant, between 20 and 30 degrees Celsius. Average monthly rainfall is still low, between .8 and .69 inches per month. Many people prefer to take a golf vacation in this area in the fall when the weather is still warm, but the sun is not beating down on them as much as during the summer months.
A lot of people from northern Europe like to escape to the Alicante region and Murcia in particular since the temperatures, though cooler than summer are practically balmy to them in comparison to home! Some retirees stay all winter, and some people just take a short getaway to get a break from the cold. The cooler temperatures, ranging from 17 to 18 degrees Celsius in the day and 5 to 7 degrees in the night, are still accompanied by sunny skies, since the rainfall is still sparse. This is the perfect time, many people feel, for a golf vacation, or to visit sites without the crowds and heat.
