Field notes
Among the most temperature-stable climates on this list — annual range 14–22°C, almost no extremes. The trade-off is rain: every month sees significant precipitation, and overcast conditions are the default. Summer (June–August) is the only stretch with reliable sun. Whale-watching season (April–October) is the cultural rhythm.
