Best Time to Visit Croatia

There is no wrong time for a Croatia trip, but each season brings its own advantages and disadvantages. From March to May and from September to November, you’ll enjoy mild weather and smaller crowds.

June through August is peak season, so expect higher prices and larger crowds. This is the best time to book a luxury tour of Croatia if you’re looking to take advantage of the country’s many outdoor activities.

December through February is the low season, so you can find great prices and less-crowded attractions. However, some attractions may be closed due to the weather.

Required clothing

Lightweights and beachwear (including sun protection) for summer. Medium weights for winter with heavy, warm clothing for inland areas. It is a good idea to pack waterproofs at any time of year.
