Sweet spot: March, June, July. Computed from NASA POWER climate normals across the route's overnight towns, balancing temperature, rainfall and daylight.
💡 Good to know
- Bay swimming and Durmitor hiking overlap; the Tara rafting season in full flow.
- Coast heaves; the mountains stay fresh — sleep high, day-trip low.
- Žabljak becomes a budget ski town; the coast stays mild and quiet.
