When to go to

Dublin

Dublin Weather

Dublin has a moderate climate that experiences only small changes from season to season. January and February are the coldest months with average temperatures of about 7°C, and the highs in summer can get up to about 19°C in July and August. Whenever you go rain is likely, although it's worst in December, but there are at least plenty of pubs to duck into to wait out the showers! The sunniest months are May and June so if you're planning lots of outside activities in Dublin you might want to visit then.

Dublin Tourist Season

Dublin's tourist season runs from Easter to October with July and August being the peak visiting times. Visitors outside these times can expect excellent deals on travel and accommodation. However quite a lot of Dublin's attractions close or offer reduced hours during the winter, so it's best to check you'll still get to see what you want. Going in the summer high season offers you the best of the weather but with it comes higher prices and crowding at the major tourist spots. Spring and early autumn offer the best of both worlds with quieter attractions and reasonable prices.
