Best Time to Visit Estonia
The best time to visit Estonia has to be late spring or summer when the weather is at its best. This is the time of year when Estonia's festivals are held. However, summers are relatively short (mid-June to late August). The daytime can be hot and dry but the nights cool off considerably. Temperatures cool down rapidly from mid-September onwards although the fall can be an extraordinarily beautiful season in which to visit. The first snowfalls can come as early as mid-November, and by early to mid-December winter sets in until after March, Spring comes in April (or even May in northern Estonia), when the countryside is lush and green. July and August are the most popular holiday months for locals who escape to the countryside. The length of days in summer in Estonia is significantly longer than more southerly places.
