When to fly

Split generally experiences hot, sunny and dry weather in the months of May to September, with temperatures on average in the 20s. Throughout this time, the city is a popular holiday destination. The months of July and August, in particular, are Split’s busiest in terms of tourism as this is when the weather is warmest and driest. This is reflected in higher travel and accommodation prices, as well as availability. If you wish to travel to Split during this time, you should try to book your flights as well in advance as possible, in the hope of getting better deals.

If you time your holiday in the middle of July then you should not miss the opening ceremony and following events of the Split Summer Festival.

The pre-peak months from April to June, as well as post-peak September and October are both good times to visit, as the weather may be almost as warm as it is in the peak season. During these months you may be able to find slightly cheaper flight prices, although this can still be a popular time. There may also be slightly fewer crowds than in the main peak season, when Split is heaving. The pre-peak month of May hosts the annual Festival of Flowers. This event is held in the ancient cellars of Diocletian’s Palace which are filled with beautiful and artistic floral displays.

December, January and February are the coolest and also the wettest months, although the temperature is still mild, with averages of around 5 to 11 degrees. This period is Split’s quietest in terms of tourism, so it’s a good time to search for cheap flights to Split and lower accommodation rates.
