What you gain in June
- ↑The weather in June is outstanding: 27°C, very low humidity by Adriatic standards (64%), little rain, and the sea reaching 22°C. Budva Riviera beaches (30km south) are at their best before the July crush. The Blue Cave (Plava Špilja) kayak tour and the boat trip around the bay are both excellent in June conditions.
- ↑The Summer Carnival of Kotor (Ljetnji Karneval) takes place in August but June brings the start of the cultural program — outdoor concerts in the Old Town piazzas, the beginning of the Boka Navy tradition events, and the first yacht regattas on the bay.
What you sacrifice
- ↓June sees a sharp increase in cruise ship calls — often 8–12 ships per week, delivering 2,000–4,000 passengers per call into a walled city of roughly 2km². The Old Town between 10am and 3pm on cruise days is genuinely unpleasant: the lanes are shoulder-to-shoulder and the atmosphere of a medieval trading city entirely absent. Check ship schedules at cruisemapper.com and plan your Old Town visits accordingly.
- ↓Prices rise significantly in June — accommodation in or near the Old Town costs 50–70% more than April.
