Which is hotter Playa Blanca or Puerto del Carmen?

Playa Blanca is slightly warmer than the other resorts as well. I've stayed in the three main resorts over the years, but I don't like PDC or CT. Everyone wants and likes different things, so it all depends what you want out of your time on the island. Thanks Mike.
