Not ranked as a sun destination — shown for reference.
Stockholm sits in an ocean-tempered climate in Sweden, and the 2015–2024 weather record gives its sunshine a clear shape: the June peak reaches a 96/100 sun score, with daytime highs around 21°C — a solid base for a long-weekend city trip.
Across a typical year, afternoon temperatures swing between 1°C (January) and 22°C (July). On the rain ledger, March is the safest bet at a 24% chance of a wet day, while August climbs to 38%. Note that average highs never reach 24°C in any month — pack for mild weather rather than hot.
Averaged by season, sun scores land at 62 for spring, 94 for summer, 50 for autumn and 41 for winter — with typical afternoons of 11°, 21°, 10° and 1°C respectively. Summer wins on the numbers and winter loses them; everything in between is a trade-off between warmth and crowds.
Best months to visit Stockholm
The best month on record is June — a 96/100 sun score, built on 54% cloud cover and 31% rain-day odds — followed by July and August. The dependable window is wider than the podium, though: May–August all score 70 or better. At the other end, December scores just 38, the weakest month of the year.
For context: in June, Stockholm is drier than 58% of the ocean destinations we track.
