On average Amsterdam is the sunniest of the three summer months. It is also the rainiest, but showers tend to be brief.

Expect lots of blue skies, dotted with white cumulus clouds.

Amsterdam’s July weather can be precarious: it’s the warmest month of the year, but you can also encounter wet and cool days (or weeks, even).

In terms of weather, June is a good month to visit Amsterdam.

Lots of sun and blue skies, with the usual clouds and/or (brief) rain showers every now and then.

The good news for Amsterdam is that May often is the sunniest month of the year, with on average about 8 hours of sunshine a day.

The bad news is that the weather is as fickle as Dutch weather can be.

April weather in Amsterdam is a study in contrasts. It can be sunny and warm one day, only to look and feel like a fall day the next. Don’t believe us? Just keep checking our Amsterdam weather forecast for April 2021 throughout the month.

March in Amsterdam is characterized by erratic weather. In fact, the old joke that the Netherlands has four seasons a day is more likely to make sense in March than in any other month.

Normally February is the coldest month throughout the Netherlands, and the coldest time of the year to spend in Amsterdam.

But it’s also one of the driest months, and there are quite a few sunny days. Often this is the month that ice skating is possible.
