Weather in Culleredo
Culleredo has a special kind of weather. It's a mix between a Mediterranean climate and an oceanic climate. This means it gets some dry, sunny periods like the Mediterranean, but also plenty of rain and mild temperatures like places near the ocean.
The weather here is very mild. This is because the warm Atlantic Ocean air influences it a lot. In winter, the ocean keeps it from getting too cold. In summer, the same ocean air stops it from getting too hot.
