When to
Go
You will find good weather in Lisbon all year long, and the sun shines most days, even if it does rain, making it a great destination to tame the winter blues. January gets the worst weather, with temperatures of around 15C/60F during the day, yet an average of almost three more hours more of sunshine daily than is experienced in the northern half of Europe. Springs are very pleasant, even early in the season, when you still get some cold days in the rest of the continent. Summers are hot, dry, with no rain and ideal for sightseeing and then cooling off on a coast side getaway in one of the nearby beaches, some located only twenty minutes from the city center. Autumn will offer you temperatures in the mid 20sC/70sF into October and a Lisbon full of cultural events and pleasant sunny days to explore the destination.
