This is why I prefer the North west. Much cooler than you guys down South east, west or wherever. A temp of 40 C will keep you indoors.
The cool sea air at Viana do Castelo is just great during summer.

Based on our local friends, the Portuguese talk about the weather just as much as the British...

Re: Where is warmer
 

The locals where i live do too, albeit the only word for all of the summer is hot - caloro
They also ask about England, some of them look really hurt when i say i don't know !

We choose the west coast for the weather; because it's not too hot! Been there, done that. I like to get some work done outside.
But the steady cool Atlantic breeze can be deceptive; the sun is still incredibly powerful in summer.

Im 40 minutes east of Porto and it was good to get to the Algarve for the breeze for a holiday! Point being... some of you would be shocked at how hot inland north gets(from mid June to mid July we had constant 37-43ºc!!)

Far cooler in winter though here, no doubt Algarve has the best all rounder weather.... or would it be Maderia or Azores?!
