What it's like in November
Is November the right month?
The best month in Helsinki is June (7.6/10), 7.0 pts higher than November.
Our verdict
Helsinki has two faces: bright and warm summer, freezing dark winter. June-July are my favourite months (7.6/10): 12-20°C, 35-41% rain, midnight sun (almost 19h of daylight), public saunas with dips into the Baltic (Löyly, Allas Sea Pool), Suomenlinna (UNESCO fortress) by 15 min ferry, festivals (Flow Festival mid-August).
Plan your trip
Hotels at their lowest outside peak season, highest on comfortable months. Shoulder seasons offer a good price/climate compromise.
