🌤 Weather summary and notes

🌤 WEATHER SUMMARY & NUANCES: Expect Mediterranean summer bliss with temperatures between +25°C and +28°C. The high humidity (up to 75%) creates a "sauna effect," so light linen clothing, high SPF, and constant hydration are essential. With the summer solstice (June 21), you’ll enjoy daylight until 21:30—perfect for late-night strolls. Note: June 23rd is the Eve of Sant Joan; expect fireworks and crowded beaches, so follow the plan to stay in the local Poblenou neighborhood for a more authentic experience.
