Weather and seasons in the Netherlands
A maritime climate brings relatively cool summers, mild winters and rain throughout the year; coastal temperatures vary less than those in the southeast.

Keep exploring Netherlands with our travel partners.
Season affects available daylight as well as temperature. Long June days leave more time outdoors, while December brings a much shorter daylight window. Rain is not confined to one season, and mild winter averages do not rule out frost. For a trip combining coastal landscapes with the southeast, expect differences rather than treating one forecast as a national picture.
Useful to know
Check the forecast for the coast or southeastern destination you will actually visit.
Keep a waterproof layer available in every season; summer does not remove the possibility of rain.
Plan outdoor sightseeing around the shorter daylight window in winter.
