Russia weather reviews

I spent my last June vacation in Sochi, my favorite city on the Black Sea coast. There were already quite a lot of vacationers during this period; some were actively swimming, although the water was still cool. No more than twenty degrees plus, of course. The air temperature was almost stable - plus 25-30 degrees. It was mostly sunny, cloudy days were rare. It rained only once during the entire period.

When going on vacation in Sochi in June, I was sure that the weather would not let me down, and my expectations were completely met! At the beginning of the month, the air temperature warms up to 20-22 degrees, which is ideal for long walks around the city and exploring its sights. Throughout June, temperatures continue to rise, reaching 25 degrees by the end of the month. This allows you to enjoy sunny days, swim in the Black Sea and spend time on the open terraces of cafes and restaurants. The humidity in Sochi in June is quite low, which makes the air fresh and pleasant. Rains this month are rare and pass quickly, leaving behind freshness and cleanliness. One of the main advantages of the weather in Sochi in June is the absence of sweltering heat. This is especially important for those who do not like heat and prefer a more comfortable temperature for relaxation. In general, the weather in Sochi in June is ideal for active and passive recreation. You can walk around the city, enjoy the sun and sea, and also attend excursions and various events that the resort offers.

In November, which is usually associated with cold and grey, I had a chance to visit the resort of Sochi. Two weeks here flew by like one day. The average daytime temperature in Sochi remained at 15 degrees plus. Sometimes there were increases up to plus 20 degrees. At night the temperature dropped to an average of plus 8 degrees. There were only a few showers and there were no strong winds. Some people even dared to swim in the sea.

Sochi in October is simply an unpredictable city, I would say so. I spent almost two and a half weeks here. The weather was unstable. The average daytime temperature was about twenty degrees plus. But sometimes it dropped to plus ten degrees. It was mostly partly cloudy and the sun was shining very rarely. It also rained often, or rather very heavy downpours. There were also gusty winds for several days.

I didn’t regret at all that I chose July for my holiday in Anapa. The month is simply ideal, especially if you go in the middle and spend a full two weeks here. The average temperature during the day was a comfortable plus 25 degrees. At night the temperature dropped to plus 18 degrees. Mostly all the days were sunny, there were very few cloudy days. As for the rains, they fell only twice during the entire period.

I was in Anapa in December, so to speak, just passing through. I visited a friend for a couple of days to take a mini vacation. According to a friend, winter was in full swing. But during the three days of my stay, I never got cold. The weather was from +3 to +5. I am from Siberia and for me this winter seemed very warm. The only drawback is the strong wind, the closer to the sea the stronger it is, you want to put on a hat. It rained a couple of times, but we managed without an umbrella. In general, everything is fine, autumn clothes and shoes are quite comfortable and there is no reason to freeze. Walking is comfortable.

It was not in vain that I spent three weeks in Anapa last summer with my son; this is truly an ideal place to relax with children. The average temperature was about 30 degrees. Sometimes there were hotter days, the temperature rose to plus 35 degrees. The water in August is quite warm, on average about 24 degrees. Just keep in mind that the sea is blooming at this time. There were quite enough sunny days, it rarely rained.

Of course, when I decided to take a trip to my beloved Sochi in January, I didn’t plan any sea. Only walks. The average daytime temperature was six to seven degrees plus. It was comfortable to take a promenade in a demi-season jacket. At night it became stable around zero or a slight plus. There were quite a lot of cloudy days, sometimes it rained heavily. The sun only came out a few times during my two weeks in the city.

When it is not possible to fly abroad on vacation, there is always the opportunity to visit places in your native country of Russia, which are incredibly beautiful at any time of the year. I was in Sochi in April 2023 and this year I’m going there again on vacation. The average temperature from night to morning ranges from +12°C to +15°C, so at night you can safely go out for a walk and not freeze. There are practically no rainy or snowy days. Personally, during my three weeks of vacation, I encountered only one day with heavy rain. There are also a lot of sunny days, on average half a month, but this in no way spoils the impression of nature and beautiful places. I recommend everyone to visit Sochi!

Going to Anapa in April for my birthday and staying for a week and a half was definitely a good decision. The average temperature during the day remained at plus fifteen degrees. But sometimes it was plus twenty-five, like in the summer. At night the temperature dropped to ten degrees plus, of course. Mostly all the days were sunny, it rained only a few times. There are no strong winds in Anapa at this time.
