A RECENT scientific study has shown that Torrox has the best climate in Europe, having compared the area with another 21 coastal towns throughout the Mediterranean. This exceptional climate is thanks to its location, which creates mild temperatures during most of the year and little heavy rain in the winter.
The mountains also prevent strong winds from reaching the area. Torrox has a subtropical climate with an average temperature of 18ēC, and the difference between the highest and lowest average temperatures registered throughout the year is just 11 degrees centigrade.
There are no frosts, and the temperature in the summer is approximately 31.8ēC thanks to cool sea breezes. The lowest winter temperature is also the best, as it goes no lower than 3.7ēC, and there are approximately 54 days of rain per year. |
