Weather related question

[meduza]

We are thinking to book a Queen Victoria cruise in a very end of August with the port of calls  Zadar, Split and Sorrento. I'm wondering how hot the weather can be ? Should we do this cruise in the end of September ? Any thoughts ? Thanks !

A quick Google search for weather in your ports gets tons of data. Try "August weather Split", for example. It will be warm to hot, more pleasant in late September. 

 

A little research on the Med ports boards will get you many discussions on weather in the area.

Aside from much pleasanter weather, September will put you out of the summer vacation mob scene, making port calls much more enjoyable.

I'm pretty sure @meduza thought they WERE doing research by asking here...

August is usually hot hot hot.

Ideal for sitting in a shady spot behind a tall cold beer.

Not ideal for sight-seeing

 

September usually makes more sense

Of course I did ask Google 🤔 and saw a very conflicting info , one site is showing max +28 and another one max+35. That’s why I ask here .

Here you get anecdotal info. And if you consider those numbers to mean a range from 28-35 degrees C, its pretty solid info.

My opinion, having been in that area many times, would be 'unpredictable'. 

It will be what it is on the day.

There are lots of sites on the WEB that will give you an idea of the weather you might get at those ports.  However just remember that weather and climate are 2 different things.  The weatherspark site is what I consider the best climate site out there.
