The travel year in Valencia, month by month
The year as a table to read and to cite: crowd level for every month, plus weather comfort and temperature from the climate normals.
| Month | Crowd level0–100, season-relative | Weather comfort0–100, profile “mild” | Avg temperature |
|---|---|---|---|
| January | 2 | 61 | 12 °C |
| February | 10 | 66 | 13 °C |
| March | 20 | 68 | 15 °C |
| April | 36 | 79 | 17 °C |
| May | 37 | 89 | 21 °C |
| June | 52 | 84 | 25 °C |
| July | 78 | 75 | 28 °C |
| August | 95 | 73 | 28 °C |
| September | 50 | 78 | 24 °C |
| October | 36 | 84 | 21 °C |
| November | 17 | 77 | 16 °C |
| December | 11 | 64 | 13 °C |
The crowd level is season-relative: 100 is the annual peak of Valencia itself, not the busiest destination in Europe. The figures say when it is quiet here — not where it is quieter than elsewhere.
Weather comfort 0–100 from the climate normals, profile “mild” – the same profile as the recommendation above, not the selection in the calendar. A “–” means the data for that month is missing.
