When to go
The short coastline of Slovenia is good for a
beach holiday in summer, especially in July and August, even though there can be some cool and rainy days, or some afternoon thunderstorms.
You can visit the
interior from June to September, bearing in mind, however, that the rains may sometimes be heavy even in summer in the western areas, such as in Ljubljana or Postunia. In July and August, every so often, periods of intense heat may occur, so if you don't like the heat, you may prefer June and September.
In the mountain resorts, there is almost always enough snow. In February, the days are longer than in the Christmas period, so it can preferable for a ski holiday.
What to pack
In
winter: in the interior, bring warm clothes, such as a sweater, a down jacket, a scarf, gloves, and an umbrella. On the coast, bring warm clothes, a jacket, a raincoat or umbrella, but also a hat, a scarf, and gloves for the days with Bora.
In
summer: bring light clothes, T-shirts and shorts, but also long pants, a jacket and a sweatshirt for the evening or for cooler days; a raincoat or umbrella. In the mountains, bring hiking shoes, sunscreen and sunglasses.
