Weather in Sweden in June

A country pin in June is a warning: one region of Sweden will not match another. Use a city page if you already know where you are going. Compared with July and January, June sits in the middle of Sweden's year.

What to expect

Daytime

Mild afternoons in Sweden are the prize in June. You can eat outside on the good days. You still want something for the breeze.

This is walking weather. Shade is useful, not essential the way it is in the hot months. A long outdoor day is a reasonable plan.

Rain

June is the wet side of the year in Sweden, the wettest stretch on these averages. Days can be heavy. Plans that cannot survive rain are the wrong plans.

This is not a reason to skip Sweden if you like the place. It is a reason to pack for weather and to stop treating every grey hour as a failed holiday.

Evening

Evenings are cooler. A layer helps after sunset.

What to pack

  • Sun protection

  • Rain jacket

  • A layer for cooler evenings
