Best Time to Visit Northern Ireland:

We think the best time to visit Northern Ireland in between May and September. The days are the longest and temperatures the highest during these months. Pro tip: We visited in August, and the weather was very unpredictable with periods of rain, wind, cool temps and sunshine each day, so dress accordingly.
