Pula weather in May

One local calls May their favourite month here - fresh and green, the season just starting, service better than it will be later - and regulars back the shoulder-season read: busy in the day with tour groups, quiet in the mornings and at night, nothing like June through August. Our row gives 21.5C over 13.3C with 115.4mm across 14.5 days, wetter than a postcard month but not a washout. The sea splits the month in two: no chance of getting in early on, a hot day at the very end of May might tempt an experienced swimmer into a quick dip at around 22C, and our column's 17.2C sits closer to the early-month reading. Nights are genuinely cool at 13.3C. The record: humidity 73 percent, 11.8 hours of sun, a 15.6 kph wind and AQI 52.

Forum posters describe June as splitting roughly in two: the first half stays pleasant for sightseeing with occasional rain that never lingers long, while the back half sees temperatures climb into the mid-to-high 20sC and genuinely warm, t-shirt-and-swimming conditions take over. Posters call June hot but not the stifling heat of full July/August, making it a favorite window for visitors who want good weather without peak-season crowds - several repeat visitors describe consistently excellent June weather across multiple trips, apart from the odd rainy day. That said, posters note real year-to-year variability exists even this time of year, with one comparison of different years finding one May sweltering hot and another notably rainy - so June isn't entirely immune to the same unpredictability, just generally favored.
