Hi
We've booked to go in Feb 17- 3rd March and wondered what the weather would be like then?
Thanx

We did similar dates in 2001 and it wasnt too bad the first week, but the second week, temperatures dropped to an average 54 degrees :( . Very chilly and we needed jumpers even during the day. Evenings were coats and hats! Having said that, friends of mine did the first 3 weeks of March this year and they had 80 degrees every day!

I would defo take at least one light coat each (or pullover fleece) and then you will be covered if the weather DOES get cold. You can buy cheap sweatshirts at the outlet malls, so I wouldnt go mad on stuffing your case with them. Just be prepared it MIGHT get a little cooler than expected at that time of year.

Have a great time.

We went on those dates last year and it was hotter then than when we went on the end of March this year!

We actually return next year in the beginning of February and return the day you arrive.

I don't recall taking any jumpers or even needing them!

We have been in Feb for 7 out of the last 9 years, generally it is like a good summer here, this past Feb was a bit cool, my dad only had his shorts on twice, but he's a wuss. We wore shorts and T's most days but not the strappy vest tops that I normally wear over there. We swam most days. We have always gone to a water park at least one day. The trick is to layer clothes as it can be cool early morning and after dark, that said we watched Illuminations this year without our fleeces on that we had taken just in case. None of our family can cope in the heat so we couldnt go in the hotter months anyway.

We went feb-march this year.

We had one day when it was very cold,one day very wet and the rest of the time very HOT.

Make sure you take at least one pair of pants and jumpers,but also hot sunny weather gear.Not like us then,we had to run out and buy some shorts.
