Field notes
Bay-of-Kotor summers run 26–30°C with high humidity from the still water; the mountains shade the bay so afternoons feel later than they are. Winters are mild (8–12°C) but rainy — November and December are properly wet. Shoulder seasons (May–June, September) are postcard-perfect and not yet overrun.
