Kotor Weather in April

April is a popular time to visit Kotor when the weather is not too hot yet; it’s also before the arrival of the summer holiday and cruise ship crowds. Montenegro’s most charming coastal town enjoys mild temperatures during this time of the year – you can expect highs of up to 25°C in the afternoons.

In short: the weather is mild and makes it perfect for a springtime getaway. The days are relatively long with 11 hours of sunshine per day throughout April, giving you lots of time to explore Kotor and the surrounding bay settlements. It can rain quite heavily though; the weather is unpredictable in April with rain expected to fall once every three days.

Kotor is famous for its stunning scenery and historic Venetian architecture, and come springtime, its streets are vibrant and colorful.

For some travelers, April might be the best month to visit Kotor. While we know there are countless reasons to travel to the Bay of Kotor in the spring, one of the best reasons might be seeing the parks and city streets begin to flower with magnolia blossoms and purple wisterias.

Just as the flowers are blooming and trees are turning green, so is Kotor’s social and cultural scene. Spring is the best time to soak up the atmosphere on the bursting outdoor terraces, with pleasing temperatures you are welcome to participate in afternoon cappuccinos or laid-back weekend lunches.

Another reason to visit Kotor surely is experiencing the newly opened Kotor Cable Car that starts operating on April 1st again – after a long winter sleep. If you prefer to explore the city’s many hiking trails – the Kotor Fortress trail being the most popular one – April is the perfect month for that.
