Holidays in Montenegro in December
Montenegro is a country with three climatic zones. Despite this, the weather conditions in each region of Montenegro in December are very similar. The average daytime temperature is + 9C, but by night it gets colder to + 4C. Typically, the thermometer does not fall below zero degrees. The exception is mountainous areas, where it sometimes gets colder down to -8C. The warmest city is Budva: during the day it can be + 14C, at night + 6C.
The sea has time to cool down to + 15C, so swimming is hardly possible. In this regard, many tourists refuse to rest in Montenegro in winter, waiting for summer. If you wish, you can give preference to the ski resorts Kolasin, Zabljak and still visit Montenegro.
