SUMMER – June, July, August
Monaco’s summers are warm and dry. The days can get pretty hot especially if you’re in direct sun.

The nights have a cool breeze coming off the Mediterranean so you’ll be happy that you packed a shall or light jacket.
Make sure to also pack a sun hat. Although there’s plenty of shade when you’re in the residential areas, places like Casino Square and The Prince’s Palace are pretty open with nowhere to protect you from the sun.

FALL – September, October, November
Monaco’s fall season is mild like the spring but still holds onto a bit more of the summer warmth, especially in September and October. Autumn is known to be the windy season in Monaco, so even if the sun is shining the wind can make it feel colder than it is. Layers are key for staying comfortable throughout the day. Men can wear a nice pair of chinos with a breathable shirt, but make sure to keep a pullover handy. For women, a maxi dress or a nice pair of trousers is perfect, a cashmere shawl keep you warm in the wind.
Fall also gets rainfall so make sure to have your umbrella with you.
Temperatures in the fall range on average between 55°F to 80°F (20°C-28°C)
WINTER – December, January, February

Temperatures in the winter range on average between 46°F to 57°F (7°C-14°C)
