Can you swim or snorkel in Medes Islands in March?

At 13.7°C our temperature-only guide describes the water as cold water. Comfort depends on your cold tolerance, immersion time and wind. A historical average cannot determine whether conditions are safe on any given day.

Do you need a wetsuit?

Use a full 3-5 mm wetsuit and keep the session within your cold-water experience.

Which beach should you choose?

Look for a beach sheltered from the actual forecast waves and wind on your visit. Exposure, currents and entry conditions vary even where water temperatures are similar. Follow local warnings.
