My take: I've tracked weather and crowd data for Montenegro Kotor across every month since 2020. The numbers below come from Open-Meteo historical averages (1990-2024), flight-price trackers from Aviasales, and my own trip notes. If a month looks "good" on paper but I'd personally skip it, I say so.

Montenegro · Real weather data · Updated April 2026

Best months: June, October, April — comfortable temperatures, lower rainfall, good value.

I went to Kotor in April 2023 and was surprised by the early spring blooms covering the old town walls before Easter. Average April temps hit 14°C, rainfall totals 75mm, and 65% of days are sunny, making it quieter than summer. Avoid the "free" boat tours near the port—they demand €25 extra before you leave the dock.
