Dublin -
The best and worst
times to visit
Insights you need to know
Best times
Best: May to June
The temperature is a wee bit on the chilly side, but you avoid the crushing tourist crowds of mid summer. And Dublin bursts with colorful flowers
Second best: July and August
It boasts a comfortable temperature (around 20°C or 65° F) - the year's highest. On the negative side, tourists swarm and prices soar.
Third best: September
Tourist crowds have lessened and the crisp early fall air is invigorating. However, daylight sightseeing hours are short.
Least desirable times
November to March
Chances are you will experience cold temperatures, chilly rain, and cloudy skies.
About the rain
The total annual rain is less than the amount that falls in most other popular European tourism cities. However, when it rains in Dublin, it usually comes down as a steady drizzle or an unaggressive shower rather than a hefty downpour.
