High Season
The months of July and August are the high season of Portugal, where summer shows temperatures of up to 30 °C, the prices of the resorts and the beaches are at their peak. The suffocating climates are normal however the oceans are at a warm temperature.
Shoulder Season
There are two intermediate seasons, from April to June and from September to November. Wild flowers and gentle days are excellent for outdoor activities. In June the festivities begin, with an average number of visitors.
Low Season
With short and rainy days, the low season (December to March) has from very cold temperatures to moderate increases, with low prices and few visitors. However, you can especially enjoy the center of Portugal, because of the sun's inclination and the winter winds.

Your travel to Portugal has about 37% the climate impact as your entire yearly budget of CO₂ emissions. This "yearly climate-compatible budget" sets the limit of emissions any person should produce in order to keep global warming to below 2C at about 2 tons of CO2. It includes anything from heating to stay warm and cosy in winter, your daily hot showers, the annoying commute to work, any traveling you do, the production of your yummy food and products you buy – and much more you emit by living your life.

If you still feel the need to fly, compensate your emissions.
