Ten-year averages for this calendar month. A rainy day is one with at least 1 mm of rain, as a weather station counts it. The model these figures come from drizzles more than a rain gauge, the more so the warmer the month, so its days count from 2 mm, rising to 5 mm in the hottest.

Weather read at the centre, under the Alhambra, 16 km from the airport (GRX): ten years of ERA5 and ERA5-Land reanalysis, through Open-Meteo's open data.

How busy it gets

March: about usual. Busiest in July and September; quietest in January and February.

Public holidays in March

Holidays crowd a place out and push fares up around them; they count toward the crowd score above.

What to pack

  • Warm layers for the evenings, which drop to about 6°C.

  • Sun protection: about 9 hours of sunshine a day.

Each line is a threshold over the ten-year figures above, not advice from anywhere else.
