The Weather in France

For most visitors to France, the weather is a significant factor in their choice of holiday. You may be a sun worshipper who will be looking for the highest temperatures and the maximum hours of sunshine. Walkers and nature lovers will probably be looking for some nice moderate temperatures and clear blue skies and even skiers will be looking for some sunshine to go with the chilly temperatures. Even if your plan is a tour of city museums and art galleries, won't pleasant weather outside will make the whole holiday more agreeable? That's why we have provided a link from each hotel page to the French Met Office website (Meteo France) where you can see climate statistics for the local area.

To look around at the climate statistics for all regions of France, follow this link to the Meteo France website. Unfortunately there seems to be no way to get the pages in English, but most of the data is graphical and the few words necessary are mostly sepf-explanatory.

All of the graphs that appear are average statistics covering the last 10, 20 or sometimes 30 years.
