WEATHER FORECAST

In March, the Algarve region in southern Portugal generally experiences mild and transitional weather as winter gives way to spring. Daytime temperatures typically range from 15°C to 18°C (59°F to 64°F), while at night, it can drop to between 9°C and 12°C (48°F to 54°F). Rain is still possible in March, especially early in the month, with around 50–60 mm of rainfall over the course of the month.

Rain showers are usually short-lived, and the sun often breaks through between them, providing around 6 to 7 hours of sunshine per day. Winds can be moderate to strong, especially along the coast, so it’s wise to bring a jacket for cooler evenings and windy days. The sea temperature hovers around 15°C (59°F), which may feel too cold for most people to swim in.
