What's the Weather like in Funchal in February

At night the temperatures remain mild for this time of year as well, with the mercury rarely dipping below 14°C making al fresco dining a must! If you're visiting Funchal at this time of year, it's a good idea to pack layers. You'll need cooler clothing for the daytime when the sun is warm, but might want an extra layer or two for after dark. Remember to slip some suncream into your luggage as well, as the sun's rays are still strong in February, despite it being winter.

Rainfall

February sees considerably less rainfall than January, with around 80mm falling over an average of 8 days throughout the month. There's still a chance you'll get caught in some showers, though, so pack an umbrella and some waterproofs to stay on the safe side.
