The United Kingdom experiences a temperate maritime climate, characterized by mild summers and cool winters, with rainfall distributed fairly evenly throughout the year. Snowfall is more common in the winter months, especially in higher elevations, and fog can be frequent, particularly in coastal areas.
May and June often offer the best balance of pleasant temperatures, longer daylight hours, and lower rainfall, making them ideal for exploring the diverse landscapes and cities.
The peak tourist season typically runs from July to August, coinciding with school holidays. During this time, expect warmer weather, but also larger crowds and higher prices for accommodation and attractions.
From November to March, the UK experiences its off-season. While the weather can be cold and wet, you can enjoy fewer crowds, lower prices, and festive Christmas markets and events.
