Best time to visit Croatia from the UK

Croatia's peak season runs June to August when the Adriatic is warm and stunning. Dubrovnik and Hvar are extremely busy in July and August with temperatures reaching 30°C to 35°C. Shoulder season (May to June and September to October) offers warm temperatures between 22°C and 28°C, a much calmer atmosphere, and significantly lower prices for flights and accommodation. Late September is widely considered the ideal time to visit , warm sea, empty beaches, and the post-summer lull in Dubrovnik. Winter is very quiet on the coast but Zagreb's Christmas market is excellent.
