Lisbon's Perfect Week: Dry, Warm and Ready for Exploration

Lisbon is the standout destination this week, with a near-perfect forecast of 25.4°C highs and 6 fine days out of 7, according to Open-Meteo. The lack of rainfall and partly cloudy skies make it ideal for sightseeing and coastal walks without the intense heat of further east.

For those seeking sun and sea, Dubrovnik and Barcelona are the places to be. Dubrovnik will hit 31.9°C highs with 7 fine days, while Barcelona reaches 31.5°C with 5 fine days. Both offer minimal rainfall, perfect for beach days and exploring historic sites. Istanbul also joins the ranks with 28°C highs and 6 fine days, though a touch of rain (5.3 mm) might interrupt the odd afternoon.

Bali, meanwhile, is a mixed bag with 28.4°C highs but only 4 fine days and some cloudy skies. It’s not a bad week to visit, but the frequent showers (2.1 mm) might disrupt outdoor plans.
