Maui leads the pack this week with 6 fine days and 24.3°C highs, while southern Europe basks in dry, warm weather.

Maui's Perfect Week: Where to Go for Sun and Dry Days

Maui is the standout destination this week, offering a rare tropical escape with 6 fine days and a comfortable 24.3°C average high. With minimal rainfall and mostly partly cloudy skies, it’s an ideal time for beach days and coastal exploration, according to Open-Meteo.

Southern Europe is also shining, with Athens leading the pack. The Greek capital boasts 7 fine days and a 33.1°C average high, making it perfect for long sightseeing days. Istanbul and Barcelona follow closely, both offering 6 fine days and average highs of 29.4°C and 31.7°C respectively. These cities are ideal for city walking and enjoying outdoor cafes.

Dubrovnik, while slightly wetter with 29.4 mm of rainfall, still manages 6 fine days and a 30.7°C average high. The mostly cloudy conditions might deter some, but it’s still a viable option for those willing to navigate occasional showers.

If you’re looking to avoid the rain, steer clear of tropical destinations outside of Maui, where wetter conditions prevail this week.
