Montenegro Kotor Weather in April — Climate Guide
April in Kotor is high
April is high for Kotor.
April is one of the best-value months in Kotor — spring weather without the summer crowds or prices. It averages 18°C/10°C with more sunshine, though the bay still sees its share of spring rain.
This is prime shoulder season: warm enough for all-day sightseeing in light layers, with the Old Town, the walls climb, and the bay at their greenest. Boat trips to Perast and Our Lady of the Rocks resume, and day tours to Lovćen and Njeguši open up. Crowds and prices are moderate — far below the July-August peak, and cruise traffic is lighter.
