Field notes
Mediterranean (Adriatic) — among the warmest year-round climates in continental Europe. Winter (December–February, 10–12°C average) is mild and the rainiest stretch. Summer (June–August, 23–26°C average) is hot and dry, moderated by sea breezes. Sea-water temperatures stay swimmable May–October. The bora wind blows cold from the north in winter.
