When to visit Rijeka?

Rijeka has a moderately-Mediterranean climate with warm summers and mild winters. Here is an overview by season:

Season Temperatures Characteristics
Summer (June-August) 26-32°C Ideal for swimming and city events
Spring (April-May) 15-22°C Pleasant weather, great period for sightseeing and excursions
Autumn (September-October) 16-25°C Warm sea in early September, more favorable prices
Winter (November-March) 5-12°C Quieter period, focus on culture and gastronomy

For the best balance of price, weather, and fewer crowds, we recommend visiting in late spring (May–June) or early autumn (September). At that time, low cost apartments in Rijeka are more available, and the weather is pleasant. During peak season (July–August), we recommend booking early.

A beautifully furnished apartment, ideally located near the beach... the owners are super nice... and very accommodating when it comes to requests... it's a shame that barbecues weren't possible; we felt right at home and were very happy with everything... thank you very much
