Climate in Galicia: Galicia's Atlantic climate is unpredictable: it can rain any day of the year, and a sunny morning can turn into dense fog in minutes. Summer is the most stable window, with mild temperatures and long days of light, though it never guarantees clear skies. Autumn and winter bring constant rain, endless mud, and wind pushing from the ocean. Spring is magical if you dodge the showers: impossible greens, wildflowers, and water everywhere. Waterproof gear always in the pack.
