Spring on the Portuguese Silver Coast - What’s the Weather Like?

We often get asked about the weather in spring here on the Portuguese western Atlantic coast, and it’s a great question! From March to June, this region enjoys pleasant temperatures, plenty of sunshine, and a refreshing ocean breeze, making it one of the best times to visit.

Spring brings a burst of color, fresh scents, and the warmth of new beginnings.

Mild and Comfortable Temperatures

Spring here is neither too hot nor too cold, making it perfect for exploring and relaxing outdoors. Temperatures typically range between 15°C and 25°C during the day, with fresh mornings and evenings around 10°C to 15°C. It’s warm enough to enjoy the sun, but without the summer heat - just the right balance for hiking, cycling, or unwinding by the ocean.

Sunshine and Fresh Ocean Air

One of the highlights of spring is the longer, sunnier days. While occasional rain showers can happen, they tend to pass quickly, leaving behind clear blue skies and crisp, fresh air. Being on the coast, we also have the gentle Atlantic breeze, which keeps things comfortable and adds to the relaxing seaside atmosphere.

Nature in Full Bloom

If you love lush landscapes and wildflowers, spring is the time to visit. The vineyards come back to life, the hills turn vibrant green, and the coastline is dotted with colorful blossoms. It´s a season where everything feels fresh and alive, inviting you to enjoy the outdoors.

Even on Cloudy Days, There’s Plenty to Do

Spring is generally pleasant and sunny, but even on the occasional cloudy or cooler day, there`s no shortage of things to do. The region is rich in cultural sights, from historic towns and charming villages to fascinating museums and castles. Whether it’s exploring the medieval town of Òbidos, visiting a local winery, or discovering the unique charm of nearby coastal towns, there `s always something interesting to experience.

And if you’re re up for a day trip, Lisbon is always worth a visit! Just a short drive away, the capital offers beautiful architecture, world-class museums, delicious food, and vibrant city life - a great way to mix coastal relaxation with a bit of urban excitement.
