Italy lies in the heart of the Mediterranean. It’s possible to find a pleasing climate all year round, especially in the coastal areas and islands.
If you want to laze on a beach along the Amalfi Coast then spring and summer temperatures will suit. Time your visit either side of European summer holidays or venture to lesser-known seaside locales for a more serene experience.
June and July are hot and busy. August is usually the hottest month, however, locals tend to abandon their towns for cooler mountain or coastal air. This means many shops and restaurants will close during this unofficial Italian summer holiday period.
Shoulder season, April to May and September to October, bring warm days and mild evenings that are perfect for exploring. Discover cities filled with art and architecture and visit cellar doors among undulating hillsides away from summer’s madding crowd.
