The climate of Melilla (Spain)
Melilla is one of the two Spanish exclaves located on the African mainland. The other city is Ceuta. It is an autonomous city located in the northern part of Morocco. Until 1995 the city was a part of the Malaga province, after this it became autonomous. The government of Morocco wants to annex Melilla and Ceuta and several islands off the coast. However, because the largest part of the population consists of Spanish citizens chances of this happening are slim. Before Spain joined the European Union Melilla was a free port, nowadays the main source of income is fishery. Because of its situation on the African continent you would expect the Mediterranean climate here to be warmer than in most parts of the Spanish mainland. However, the opposite is true. Because the climate is strongly influenced by the Atlantic Ocean the temperature of the sea water is lower here which reflects on both daytime and night time temperatures. Most precipitation falls during the winter.

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:
