The best time to go to Alfatar is during the late spring (May to early June) or early autumn (September to early October) to enjoy pleasant weather and fewer crowds.
During these shoulder seasons, the temperatures are comfortable for exploring the outdoors, typically ranging from 18°C to 25°C. You'll find the countryside lush and green in spring, with wildflowers in bloom, and vibrant with autumnal colours in early autumn. This period avoids the intense heat of summer and the colder, sometimes snowy, conditions of winter, making it ideal for those who prefer a relaxed pace without the peak season rush.
For those interested in agricultural tourism or local traditions, late spring and early autumn often align with various local festivals and harvest activities in the Silistra Province, offering a unique insight into Bulgarian rural life.
