Malmö, like the rest of Sweden, experiences an oceanic climate, which means the seasons are never harsh. If you’re visiting in the summer time (June to August) you’re in for a real treat, as the days are very long – up to 17 hours in fact! This is great for being outdoors and just having a great time at festivals, like the Malmö Festival in the last week of August every year. Unfortunately, this time of the year means higher flight and accommodation prices, and overcrowded attractions. Winters are also a nice time to visit if you’re after a real European experience. There is hardly any rain in Malmö, but with temperatures hovering around 6°C, you’ll be able to wear your stylish winter coats and embrace the fresh, crisp air. Ideally, the best time to visit would be in spring (March to May) or autumn (September to November). During this time you will get to experience nice cool days (an average of 14°C) and enjoy all the sights.

Known as the city of parks, Malmö is invested in reducing its carbon footprint and has successfully been doing so since the 90s. The city has more than 16 fully green and eco-friendly green parks and is constantly making improvements on them. Malmö was also voted the world’s most bike friendly city, with locals and tourists encouraged to travel by cycling. There are easily available bikes to rent all over the city.
The locals of Malmö love supporting local, and so a great afternoon spent would be at one of the local markets. Here, you can find organically grown produce, vintage pieces of clothing and everything else that you can imagine. The Drottningtorget and Mollegangen markets are a fantastic starting point.
The city also offers close proximity to Copenhagen via the Oresund Bridge (just 20 minutes by car) – great for a day trip or even a night of the town.
