The climate of Costa Daurada (Spain)
The Costa Daurada or Gold Coast is a popular sunny destination on the
Spanish mainland. This coastal region of almost 200 kilometers long is
characterized by long and wide beaches with fine sand. More sandy
beaches can be found here than along the other Spanish costas. The
Costa Daurada is situated in the northern part of Spain and consists of
the entire area south of Barcelona. The Costa Daurada consists of the
entire coastline of the Tarragona province. The Costa Daurada has a
Mediterranean climate with warm and dry summers and mild winters with
slightly higher precipitation figures. However, annual precipitation
figures are still low. From June till August sunshine is guaranteed
which causes many European tourists to travel here. During the winter
temperatures are slightly lower here than on the Costa Blanca which is
situated further to the south. This is also why the Costa Daurada is
not as popular as the Costa Blanca for tourists to spend their 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:
