Naples's Climate
Naples sits on its namesake bay in southern Italy, in the shadow of Mount Vesuvius, with a classic Mediterranean climate of hot dry summers and mild, damp winters. Summers (June–September) are sunny and dry, typically 28–33°C, occasionally pushed above 35°C by the African sirocco wind. Winters (December–February) are gentle and bring the year's heaviest rain, with daytime highs around 10–15°C and frost a rarity thanks to the moderating Tyrrhenian Sea. Spring and autumn are cool and comfortable, mixing sunshine with passing showers.
