The climate of Valencia in March: overview

In March, Valencia typically shows orange blossom scent and pre-Fallas firm sun. The average high temperature is around 19°C and the average low around 9°C, with monthly rainfall of 38 mm spread over roughly 6 rain days and about 209 hours of sunshine. Average relative humidity stands at 64% and wind speed averages 12 km/h.

The local calendar in March is shaped by Las Fallas until 19 March, so checking the forecast a few days in advance is worth it before any outdoor activity. Averages give a general picture but extreme events can vary widely: in March, Valencia has recorded both unusually warm spells and cold incursions across recent decades.

What to wear

For a typical stay we recommend shirt and light jacket, cap. UV protection is sensible on sunny days, even in a mild winter month, and a closed-toe waterproof shoe helps on damp days. For multi-day trips bring thin layers that you can combine through the day.

Best time of the month to visit
