Meloneras Weather and Climate

The southerly resorts on all of the Canary Islands enjoy the best weather because of their location, and Meloneras is no different. During the summer the resort enjoys some of the hottest weather on Gran Canaria with temperatures going as high as 28°C during the peak months. The north of the islands see’s most of the rain but the south may see a little also from time to time, but it’s quite rare.

Over winter you can expect the temperature to be half of what it is in summer and you can expect a touch more rain also. The climates stay warm through summer which means that the rain that does occur will generally clear up quick enough. At the start of February temperatures will start to pick up once again in preparation of the summer coming back around.
