Best time to visit Croatia

Based on all the essential things any traveller needs to know about visiting Croatia such as the cost of travel, weather, peak travel seasons and many more, April-May is the best time of year to go.

Summer temperatures in Zagreb, one of the most popular tourist destinations in Croatia, can reach a maximum of 30℃ (87℉). The temperature at night in the winter can drop to as low as -8℃ (17℉), although this can differ at other destinations across Croatia depending on the geography.

The days are longest in Croatia in August, so if you want to see the sights during the day when the sun is up for the longest time, it’s best to visit around that time of year. May sees the most amount of rain in a month if you’re ok with chancing getting drenched, so if you’re looking to stay dry, visit in January instead.
