When to visit Riga?

Latvia has four distinct seasons. Summer, from June to August, is considered the best time to travel to Latvia. Temperatures are pleasant, averaging around 20 to 25 degrees Celsius. Days are also longer, offering more time to explore the superb beaches, national parks and charming medieval towns of Riga and Cēsis.

Spring (March to May) is another great time to visit Latvia. Temperatures start to warm up, but rainfall is more frequent. However, this doesn't stop you enjoying the beautiful forests in bloom and the many cultural festivals that take place at this time of year.
