Best time to visit Évora

Portugal · 20-year averages

May is the best month in Évora, scoring 89 out of 100, with August the weakest at 48. The 41-point spread means timing is worth planning around without being decisive. 4 of the twelve months sit within ten points of the best, so there is more than one right answer.

August is the warmest month at 34.3 °C and January the coolest at 14.2 °C — a 20.1 °C spread across the year. Around 93 days a year top 30 °C, concentrated in August and the months either side. 9 nights a year dip below freezing.

There is a real wet season here. January, March, April, October, November and December carry the rain — up to 11 wet days in a month — while June to August drop as low as 1. That 10-day gap is the biggest single difference between a good month and a bad one in Évora, and it moves further than the temperature does.

Daylight runs from 9.5 hours in winter to 14.8 in summer, enough to notice on a sightseeing itinerary.

The three strongest months are May, April, October. The one to think twice about is August. Each month below has its own page with rainfall reliability, extremes, daylight and crowd levels.
