What's the Weather like in Bruges in August

August is the warmest month of the year for Bruges and the height of the tourist season. Finally, not only can all heavy winter gear be left at home, but this is also one of the best times of the year to go into the nearby ocean for a quick dip. Also, with the addition of numerous tourists, visitors may find themselves waiting a little longer for a table or queuing up in long lines at some of the more popular sights.

Temperature

During the month, the temperatures are as warm as they will be all year and top out with an average daily temperature of 17°C (63°F). Afternoon highs are very pleasant with temperatures climbing all the way to an average of 21°C (70°F). While there are only a few days that are warm enough for shorts, this is a nice change from the bitter conditions felt during the winter months. Overnight lows can also be pleasant and fairly mild. Temperatures will bottom out at an average of 12°C (54°F). Another reason why the city is so popular during this month is that thanks to the nearby waters these temperatures are much cooler than other regions in Belgium and central Europe.

Average Sunshine Hours

Visitors are also treated to an average of 6 hours sunshine per day during this time to go along with the warm afternoon highs. Overnight lows can also be pleasant and fairly mild. Temperatures will bottom out at an average of 12°C (54°F). Another reason why the city is so popular during this month is that thanks to the nearby waters these temperatures are much cooler than other regions in Belgium and central Europe.

Average Sea Temperature

Rainfall

Rainfall is still prevalent during this month. While not as wet as the previous month, 71mm of precipitation is still expected. This rain will fall over a period of just 4 days.
