The climate of Cagliari (Italy)
Cagliari is the capital of the island Sardinia, situated in the
Mediterranean Sea. Because of its central location in the
Mediterranean Sea Cagliari has been inhabited by several different
cultures over the years. This is still reflected by the culture and
the atmosphere of the city. Cagliari has a mishmash of different
styles. Cagliari still has a Medieval town-wall. In this suburb you
can still find several museums with modern art and archaeological
finds. In the suburb of Marina you can enjoy the excellent Italian
cuisine in one of the many ‘trattoria’. Many restaurants and bars can
be found here that serve all kinds of seafood. Because Cagliari is
situated on the southern part of the island the climate is influenced
by a warm wind from the Sahara. Don’t be surprised to find desert sand
on your balcony after a windy night. The sea wind somewhat moderates
temperatures, which is very pleasant. During the summer temperatures
may rise up to 35+ degrees Celsius. Cagliari hardly gets any rain.
During the winter there are only a few rainy days per month.

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:
