July and August are the warmest months, with average temperatures between 12°C and 20°C, and the longest daylight hours, sometimes extending past 10 pm.

There are often outdoor events and festivals in Edinburgh during this time, which are easily accessible from Leith.

September brings slightly cooler temperatures, typically 10°C to 17°C, but the weather often remains pleasant, and the autumn colours begin to appear. The summer crowds start to thin out, offering a more relaxed experience while still enjoying good weather for sightseeing and dining.
