Differential characteristics of the meditteranean climate

This climatic area, also called the Temperate Climate with a Dry Summer Season (Cs)4, presents major advantages, from the point of view of tourist activity, compared to its “competitors”- the Tropical (Aw) and Subtropical Humid (Cfa) climates G1:

The total amount of rain is less, which allows more days in which to enjoy the sunshine, the beaches and complementary activities in the open air.

The absence of rain in the central months of the year coincides with the peak times for tourist demand, as opposed to climates with rainy seasons in the summer.

Climatic comfort, which is very related to atmospheric humidity, is much higher in Mediterranean areas as they avoid the binomial very high temperatures and saturation of humidity in the air.

Given its latitude5, the Mediterranean presents practically no risk of tropical atmospheric disturbances (cyclones, tornadoes, etc.) with potentially devastating effects.
