Lisbon's Perfect Week: 7 Days of Sun and Warmth

Lisbon is the standout destination this week, with a perfect 7/7 fine days and an average high of 29.3°C. The city’s warm, dry weather is ideal for beach days at Costa da Caparica or exploring the historic Alfama district without the threat of rain. With no rainfall expected and plenty of sunshine, it’s a prime week to experience Lisbon’s vibrant culture and scenic views.

Other southern European destinations also offer excellent weather this week. Barcelona and Dubrovnik both boast 7/7 fine days, with average highs of 32.3°C and 34.7°C respectively. Barcelona’s mostly cloudy skies won’t deter sightseers, while Dubrovnik’s partly cloudy conditions are perfect for exploring the ancient city walls. Istanbul also shines with 6/7 fine days and an average high of 29.6°C, offering plenty of opportunities to visit the Hagia Sophia and other iconic landmarks.

For those considering a tropical getaway, Bali might not be the best choice this week. With only 2/7 fine days and an average high of 27.4°C, the island faces mostly drizzle and 3.7 mm of rainfall. While the temperatures are pleasant, the frequent rain showers may disrupt outdoor activities and beach plans.
