Güímar has a hot-summer Mediterranean climate (Köppen Csa): dry, sunny summers and mild, wetter winters.
The warmest month is August, when afternoons average 28° and nights 18°. January is the coolest month, with highs of 20° and lows of 12°. The difference between the warmest and the coolest month is about 7°, a small seasonal swing typical of places tempered by the sea.
About 395 mm of precipitation falls in an average year. November is the wettest month (63 mm, 8 wet days) and July the driest (2 mm, 0 wet days). Cloud cover ranges from 12% in July to 31% in December.
The sea reaches about 24° in September. Sea temperatures lag the air by a month or two, so late summer is usually warmer for swimming than early summer.
Compared with Madrid, the capital, Güímar is 5.5° cooler on a August afternoon and receives less precipitation over the year.
