Climate and weather in Rijeka

The city has a "transitional Mediterranean" climate, with slightly cold winters and pleasant summers tempered by the sea. However, it rains more or less year-round, though less so in summer. Late spring and early autumn are good times to visit, as is summer (though it can be crowded and prices tend to rise) for those who prioritize the beach.
