Averages for Los Cristianos in July

July is an especially good time to see Los Cristianos in the Canary Islands. In addition to the amazing paradise-like weather and year-round activities, a very special event occurs during this month.

This is the time of year when Los Cristianos honours the patron saint of fishermen and sailors with La Fiesta de La Virgen del Carmen. The celebration takes place on many islands and in many coastal regions in which the economy relies heavily on the sea. The highlights of this ceremonial holiday include sailors bearing a likeness to the saint of the sea and setting it afloat. Some people even follow it out into the water. The evening ends with a dazzling fireworks display.

Tourists in July can take advantage of the two beautiful beaches there: the manmade Playa de Las Vistas and the natural Playa del Los Cristianos. Both have individual features that make them unique. Each also have exciting water adventures as well as the opportunity to sit back and relax.

Scuba diving is an especially popular activity in Los Cristianos since the water is so clear and visibility is at a maximum compared to other diving locations all year long.

Los Cristianos is quieter than some of the other Canary Islands in terms of partying; therefore, it is a good location for those who would like to avoid those crowds.

Similarly, it might also be a good place to stay for those who would like to take part in the active night life of the other islands but then return back to their own private paradise to recover the next day.

The average low is 68°F (20°C), and the average high is 82°F (28°C).

There is an average of 0.04” (1 mm) of precipitation on about 1 day.

There is an average of 13 ½ hours of sunlight.
