The climate of Puglia

Like all the Southern regions of Italy, Puglia enjoys a mild climate that allows for the most part of the year to enjoy excursions and to appreciate the astonishing beauties of a still pure nature. The wind blows all year round (the main wind are mistral, sirocco, and south west and sometimes north-east) changing and refreshing the air even in the biggest cities which have a higher risk of atmospheric pollution.

The yearly average temperature is 18 degrees centigrade. In Summer temperatures can reach 38 degrees and in Winter less than 0 degrees but only in the inner and mountain areas.

Although Puglia does not have much rain the past years snow and rain have refilled the basin and there in no longer lack of water.
