Weather in Tallinn

Tallinn sits on the southern coast of the Gulf of Finland and has a humid continental climate.

Spring (March to May) often starts late with temperatures rising slowly. In May, the average high is 17°C (63°F) while the average low is 5°C (41°F). Spring is the driest season so it is a good time to visit.

Summer (June to August) is when the city comes alive with pavement cafes and restaurant tables spilling out on to the cobbled streets and festivals bursting into action. This is peak season so naturally hotel prices are higher than other seasons. Please note that summer can be rainy so bring a raincoat with you.

Autumn (September to November) sees temperatures drop rapidly and the tourist crowds dissipate. September is still a good month to visit but by November, the average high is only 4°C (39°F) while the average low dips to -2°C (36°F). November is also the wettest month.

Winter (December to February) is long and cold, but winter snows lend the city an almost impossible sense of romanticism as the Christmas Market sparkles in the enchanting Old Town. February is the coldest month with average high around -2°C (36°F) and average low at -9°C (16°F).
