The month of May begins the spring season in Bulgaria, which is conducive to visiting and getting to know this interesting country. Although there is quite a lot of rainfall in Bulgaria at this time of the year, the temperatures are getting higher, the day is also getting longer and it all makes you spend a nice and unforgettable holiday. Even with an umbrella in hand, you can walk, admire the awakening nature, hike along mountain trails and admire numerous architectural monuments.
Weather and temperature.
In May, the air temperature in Bulgaria is around 15 ‘C during the day and 8’ C at night. The day is getting longer, the sun is shining more and more, warming up the still cold waters of the Black Sea. The water temperature in May is around 17 ‘C, so it is still too cool to enjoy swimming in the sea. In the month of May, weather forecasters report quite a lot of rainfall, especially in the north of the country and in the regions of the eastern coast.
What to take with you?
When going to Bulgaria in May, you should take warmer clothes with you, because even if the temperature allows you to walk in a sweatshirt or sweater during the day, evenings and nights are still quite cold and a warmer jacket or coat will certainly be useful. Due to the fairly frequent rainfall, which we mentioned at the beginning, a raincoat and an umbrella should be included in the vacation suitcase. If you plan to go hiking in the mountains, remember about comfortable and solid shoes. There may still be snow in the high parts of the mountains, so remember to bring extra clothes.
