The best time to visit Poti is during the late spring (May to early June) and early autumn (September to October) when the weather is pleasant and the crowds are smaller.
During late spring, the temperatures are mild, typically ranging from 18°C to 25°C, making it ideal for exploring the city and its surroundings comfortably. The humidity is also lower compared to the summer months, and the natural landscapes are lush and green. This period is particularly good for couples looking for a relaxing escape before the peak tourist season. You can enjoy strolls along the Poti Lighthouse or explore the Kolkheti National Park without the intense heat.
Early autumn also offers agreeable weather, with temperatures similar to late spring, usually between 20°C and 27°C. The sea is still warm enough for swimming, and the summer crowds have dispersed, leading to a more tranquil experience. This season is excellent for solo travellers who appreciate exploring at a leisurely pace, with opportunities to visit local markets and enjoy the Black Sea coast in a calmer setting. The harvest season also means fresh local produce is readily available.
While summer (July and August) is popular for beach holidays, it can be very hot and humid, with temperatures often exceeding 30°C, and the city can be quite busy.
