The climate of Mar del Plata (Argentina)
Mar del Plata is a popular seaside resort on Argentina’s east coast in the Argentina province. Because of its favourable situation on the Atlantic Ocean Mar del Plata has developed itself as the most important seaside resort of the country and is also called the Atlantic Pearl. On a yearly basis about 3 million tourists visit Mar del Plata. The old part of the city was redesigned during the second part of the last century by several famous architects who built many picturesque Art Deco buildings. In subsequent years many characteristic tourist high-rise buildings were built, which detracts from the cityscape.
Mar del Plata has a moderate sea climate. Rainfall is evenly spread out over the year. During the winter the amount of rainfall is a little less on average. Average temperatures are a little lower than you would expect from a poplar seaside resort such as Mar del Plata. During the summer night time temperatures may even get cold. Sleeping under just a sheet is not warm enough. About 10 to 12 times per year temperatures rise above 30 degrees Celsius on average. Winters are cold, but temperatures are somewhat being moderated by its situation on the coast. Snowfall is uncommon.

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather, extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate information for each month of the year:
