Atlantica Baltics Review/Weather?

[reileyj]

We're on the Sept 5-12 Costa Atlantica cruise r/t Copenhagen. Has anyone been on this itinerary and can post a review? Also, can anyone tell me the average climate in this area in early Sept. and recommend how to dress? I was under the impression it would be warm, then I saw the weather in Helsinki, St.Petersburg etc. was at a high of 62 degrees so now I am not sure how to pack!!!! THANKS!

We were there in May and it was 50 degrees. Our guide in St. Pete told us that they only get 50 days a year over 60 degrees. They are on the exact same lattitude as Anchorage, Alaska so dress accordingly.

You will have a great time. In Helsinki, do not miss the rock church. One of the wonders of the world! In stockholm, do not miss the Gaamla Stan[ old original town] it is great, old cobblestone streets and shops. The Vasa museum is great also. If you take any of the ships shore excursions, be sure and go on "through the eyes of the russian people". Fun excursion.

 

Have fun chip Brady
