Faial Weather

- Sub tropical paradiseVisitors on holiday to Faial will find themselves immersed in a lush green sub-tropical paradise. The most popular time to visit is between June and August, when the rainfall that feeds the island’s gorgeous greenery starts to become relatively less and the temperatures starts reaching warming highs of 26C. While the Azores aren't particularly known for their beaches, a beach holiday to Faial is becoming increasingly popular and the spa region of Varadouro is a haven for relaxation, where visitors can soak themselves in the naturally formed spas, bubbling away at 36C. Weather in Faial - Popular water sports destinationWith the temperature rarely dropping below the mid-teens, Faial holidays are very popular with water sports enthusiasts. The Faial-Pico channel is a great sailing spot, and is also very popular for windsurfing. Those planning an action packed activity holiday in Faial, and who don't mind a spot of rain while exploring the sea, can enjoy Faial all year round. Scuba divers may want to visit between April and October when underwater visibility is at its best. The volcanic ocean floor is so fertile that the underwater flora and fauna has been able to flourish, providing divers with a gorgeous underwater wonderland to explore.  - Late summer and Spring breaksThere are so many places to explore on a Faial holiday, and September and October along with April and May provide holidaymakers with a refreshing climate in which they can enjoy this jewel of the Azores. While the average rainfall does rise slightly during these months, without them the island would have none of its beauty. The volcanic soil proves to be very fertile, and the stunning crater located in the centre of the island provides visitors with a unique photo opportunity. There are also the botanical gardens, and the Parque Florestal do Capelo to enjoy during the milder months.Email this to a friendClick here to send this page to a friendExtrasCar hire
