Check the live forecast above before heading out, as Sousse’s Mediterranean climate brings hot, dry summers and mild, wet winters, making seasonal planning essential for visitors and residents alike.
What is the typical weather pattern in Sousse?
Sousse, on Tunisia’s eastern coast, enjoys a hot-summer Mediterranean climate (Köppen: Csa). Summers (June–September) are dry and sunny, with average highs around 31–33°C. Winters (December–February) are mild and wetter, with daytime temperatures averaging 16–18°C. The shoulder months—spring and autumn—offer comfortable warmth and lower humidity, ideal for exploring the medina or beaches.
How does the weather vary across the year?
If you’re planning a trip, sousse weather by month shows a clear split: May to October is reliably warm and dry, while November to March brings more rain and cooler evenings. For longer-range planning, the sousse weather forecast 30 days can give a broad trend, but accuracy diminishes beyond two weeks. For precise planning, check sousse weather 14 days or sousse weather 15 days forecasts. If you’re wondering about sousse weather december, expect highs around 18°C and occasional showers—still pleasant for sightseeing with a light jacket.
Is Sousse’s weather suitable for a winter holiday?
Yes. Winter highs of 16–18°C are mild, though December is the wettest month. You’ll need a raincoat and layers, but it’s far warmer than a UK winter—ideal for cultural visits without the summer heat.
How accurate are 10-day and 21-day forecasts for Sousse?
10-day forecasts (like sousse weather 10 days) are reasonably reliable for temperature trends. Longer-range forecasts, including sousse weather 21 days, should be treated as a guide only—Mediterranean weather patterns can shift quickly.
What is the sea temperature like in Sousse?
The Mediterranean off Sousse warms to around 27°C in August, perfect for swimming. Even in winter, it rarely drops below 15°C, so hardy swimmers can still take a dip.
