Weather in Mediteranean august and september

[Action Dave]

We will be cruising the mediteranean late August and September on NCL Epic. Visiting Rome, Florence, Barcelona, Cannes and Majorca.

I am curious about sea conditions and general weather at that time of year. This is our first time visiting Europe and the Med. Any helpful advice is appreciated.

Three years ago, we went the first week in September. Warm, in the 80's and sunny. We had glorious weather, but there are no guarantees.

Did this cruise past 2 years at the end of September. Weather was lovely mid 20's and sea conditions were also fine. Enjoy it's a fab itenary.

My cruise in the Mediterranean was August 20-31st and had amazing weather, it was quite warm, some days over 90F. Not one drop of rain my entire cruise.

 

Your itinerary sounds great!

We did this cruise last summer during the last week of last August into the beginning of September. (came back Labor Day) The weather was hot - 85 in Barcelona, 90's in Italy, 90 in France. No rain at all, and sea conditions were smooth for us.

It's going to be hot. We did the same route, EPIC R/T Rome, and in early-mis August it was HOT. I think you're missing Naples in your list, but I think that was our hottest day at like 35.5c (I think that's like 96?). Each port was quite hot, but Majorca was the breeziest. I imagine at the end of August the weather is still quite warm.

I can confirm: it will be warm ( very warm sometimes), blue sky all over and the sea conditions will be excellent

Thank you for your response..Well hot it is then. we will accept that...and make the best of it...

Our Mediterranean cruise was hot in September, but beautiful! Our cabin was in the very front of the ship and the water was as calm as could be. Enjoy your cruise. Our Mediterranean cruise was awesome!

I did the Mediterranean in August 2016...it was awesome, but very warm. The only thing I would say is don't go to Pompeii in the afternoon. It was BAKING hot there! Everything else was bearable!

Agree with all previous posters. We did this same itinerary on Epic in 2014. Weather was fantastic, it was pretty warm temperature-wise (usually 80s) and we enjoyed mostly sunny days. Seas were calm and sailing was beautiful and pleasant. Enjoy your trip!
