March - May (Springtime)

Springtime is a wonderful time to visit Montenegro when the verdant and colorful countryside comes alive with fresh landscapes and blooming flowers. The seaside towns and resorts start to awaken at this time of year and are still welcoming and quiet before the high season kicks in. This is a great time of year to get out in the interior of the country and explore the great outdoors with the mountainous regions along with visiting national parks like Prokletije or Durmitor for hiking and bird-watching excursions.

Late March is a pleasant time to visit with the last of the ‘ice days’ being gone even in the high mountainous regions. April and May are considered low season and can be the perfect time to visit the coastal towns and beaches with little to no crowds. At the beginning of May, the Adriatic Sea temperatures hit near 70 degrees and the weather is pleasant and warm, the perfect time for a beach holiday with swimming and other water activities. The spring months can bring on unexpected downpours, with an average of 10-13 rain days a month. March to May is the sunniest time of year with on average 0-8 hours of sunshine per day.
