Ukraine : When should you leave?

The temperate continental climate of the country, due to its vast size, does not allow to get an accurate idea of the weather in Ukraine. Winter (although less severe in the south of the country) lasts five months, is quite severe and is punctuated by snow and dust storms. After the heavy rains in March, summer sets in and temperatures in Ukraine reach 20°C, and even 30°C in August. On the Odessa side, the Mediterranean climate tendency makes the mercury rise even more.

When to go to Ukraine? Although the country enjoys a temperate continental climate, its size is such that the weather varies greatly from one region to another. Also the temperatures in summer and in winter show an average difference of 30°C, with rainy summers (July and August in particular) coupled with a strong heat, while the winters are long and rather harsh. The best time to go to Ukraine is without any doubt spring: trees are in bloom, it is not yet the high tourist season and rain is not very frequent. In fact, in summer, you might find yourself stuck on the beaches of Odessa and pay more for your accommodation. If it is winter that you wish to go there, bring warm clothes because the average temperature is around 0°C. So when to go to Ukraine? From late April to early June!
