Want to spend your holidays in Croatia? Well, that shouldn’t be a tough decision to make if you consider the natural and architectural beauties, great food and wine, rich cultural and traditional heritage. But no matter how beautiful the place is, the one thing that can ruin any vacation is a bad weather. Yes, we have all been there. It always rains on our day off work, and the temperature always drops during that week we planned to relax on the beach.

Dubrovnik is definitely one of the sunniest places of southern Europe as rest of the coast in the southern part of Croatia. The town has Mediterranean climate which traditionally has warm and dry summers and mild /cool and sometimes very wet winters. The average temperatures in Dubrovnik range from 4 degrees C in winter to 29 degrees C in summers.
It is also a pretty windy town. And yes, the snow sometimes falls in Dubrovnik, but that is really rare occasion (have a look at the video here).

Still not sure when you should visit Dubrovnik?

The best time to visit Dubrovnik is September and October, when temperatures aren’t extremely hot, yet the most of the cruise ships have left the ports. The sea remains warm for these two months, so it’s a great time to dip into the sea rather than in your deepest pocket. The peak season, summer, has arguably the nicest weather with average high temperatures fluttering. Good news is that even the prices in Dubrovnik dive from October through April.
