August in Bilbao is 20.5 °C by day and 22.2 °C in the water. This is the year's peak load, 4 out of 5, and even that is lower than the south.
August is the one month the city looks like a party. In the third week it holds Aste Nagusia, the big city week: concerts along the river, processions, a crowd on the embankment. It started in 1978, and it is a festival for locals rather than tourists. The practical conclusion: do not view flats that week, but do see the city.
