June is a premium time to visit, with its temperate weather and smaller crowds. The hottest month is August, France’s holiday month, and those left in the city are treated to the unique Paris beach experience, tons of sand spread along the banks of the Seine for picnicking and basking in the sun.

October and November are excellent months to visit, as the weather is still warm, nights are cool and crisp, and the crowds have thinned.
