7The Best Time to Visit Matera

Matera is a year-round destination, but the best time to visit depends on your preferences. The spring and fall seasons (April to June and September to November) offer mild weather, making it ideal for exploring the Sassi and enjoying Matera’s outdoor attractions.

Summer (June to August) can be quite hot, with temperatures often exceeding 90°F (32°C). While the warm weather attracts many tourists, it’s essential to stay hydrated and seek shade during the peak heat hours. Winter (December to February) brings cooler temperatures, occasional rain, and even some snowfall. This season offers a quieter, more intimate experience in Matera, as there are fewer tourists. However, some attractions and restaurants may have reduced hours during this period.
