Málaga hits a peak of 37°C today, making the 26°C Mediterranean waters very inviting for a cooling dip. If you prefer it cooler, Cádiz is lovely at a mild 24°C, or head to the Sierra Nevada for a high of 24°C and a crisp low of 16°C. Enjoy a very late evening stroll as the sun stays up until 21:22 tonight.
