The climate of Nice in december is bad

The climate throughout December in Nice benefits from the influence of the Mediterranean Sea because the atmosphere remains gentle throughout the month. However, even if the weather is often beautiful due to the gentle presence of the winter sun - it is not yet conducive to outdoor activities since the rains regain in both intensity and frequency.

Nice at the Beginning of the Month

With temperatures ranging from 6° C to 12° C - the cold weather characterizes the many sunny days of the beginning of the month. For this reason, in order to take full advantage of this shy sunshine, warm clothes are of great importance. Although the weather is conducive to recharging away from the harshness of winter, outdoor activities are limited.

Nice in the Middle of December

Despite the fall in temperatures, the weather throughout Nice in December remains pleasant - as the sun still dominates many days that stand out for their luminosity. However as the night falls rather quickly, it is necessary to plan activities in order to make the most out of these few hours of sunshine.

Nice at the End of December

Towards the end of the month, weather conditions improve slightly - yet the weather is not conducive to outdoor activities, despite the mild winter sun. This is especially true since the rains are experiencing a slight intensification and occur more often.
