Antibes, France

Mediterranean climate with hot, dry summers (Jun-Sep) and mild, wet winters (Dec-Feb) influenced by Antibes' strategic position on the French Riviera where the Maritime Alps provide protection from northern mistral winds while the Mediterranean Sea moderates temperature extremes year-round. The sheltered location between Nice and Cannes creates a particularly favorable microclimate with slightly warmer temperatures and reduced wind exposure compared to more exposed coastal areas. Sea breezes provide natural cooling during summer months while the Gulf Stream's influence ensures mild winter conditions, with the old town's stone ramparts creating additional wind shelter and thermal mass effects.
