Best destinations by month

May to early June offers the clearest weather compromise: official 1971–2000 normals show rising warmth, relatively low rainfall and less heat than July or August. July and August are the hottest months, with normal daytime highs near 30°C; plan museums and steep walks before midday, then use the seafront later.

September stays warm and brings the principal San Gennaro observance on 19 September, but rainfall begins to rise. October and November are milder and much wetter in the long-term record, so build indoor alternatives into each day. December to February suits museums, churches and food-focused trips, with shorter days and a greater need for rain layers. March and April are useful transition months; check Easter dates because religious events can alter access and movement.
