The climate of Cannes (France)
Cannes is a popular seaside resort that was built for the village of
Le Cannet. Within some decades the place has developed into a real
town with the tourist region Cannes La Bocca on the westside.
Altogether the town of Cannes has less than a hundred thousand
inhabitants, but during the summermonths there is a multiple of this
number of inhabitants staying here. Cannes is known for its luxury
hotels, the splendid Boulevard Croisette, the two yacht-havens with
extremely luxurious yachts and the many exhibitions and festivals that
are held here, of which the annual filmfestival is the best-known and
is partially responsible for the international reputation of this
French seaside resort. International filmstars let themselves be
admired on the red carpets of the fine hotels such as the Martinez,
Carlton, Majestic and Noga Hilton. The winters are mild owing to the
influence of the Mediterranean Sea. The temperature seldom reaches the
frost-line and there is hardly any chance of frost or snow. Spring
mostly begins in March and in that period the temperature already
regularly rises towards twenty degrees. From May up to and including
September most of the days the weather is lovely with much sun and
agreeable temperatures. October can also bring along many splendid
days but the water in most swimming-pools at the hotels is cool then
(16 to 18 degrees) and the chance of rain strongly increases. In the
period of the middle of October until the middle of December there is
averagely the most precipitation with in November an average of well
over a hundred millimeters a month.
