The weather in Granada tends to be somewhat contradictory, although its location in the southern part of Spain means that the sun shines a good part of the time. It all depends on the time of year you will be visiting, of course. We recommend that you bring warm clothes in winter and lightweight clothes in summer. As for precipitation, generally speaking it does not rain very often but snow makes an appearance on the coldest days of the year in the province's highest mountains, Sierra Nevada.
