Outside part of metropolitan France - located in Western Europe - also has overseas departments. Therefore, I will describe only the climate of Europe. In the northern part of France has a temperate humid climate (cooler summers and relatively warm winter). In the spring we meet with high rainfall. Autumn mornings can be cool, but in the afternoon the weather will be a little better already.
South of France has a warm, dry summers with temperatures in excess of 30 ° C. From time to time there are severe storms and hail. Winters are mild, the temperature of the Mediterranean Sea, is rarely less than 10 ° C and very frequent rainfall. Occasionally there are sudden attacks of winter and then sometimes there are prepared for snow paralyzes cities in the south. Even more rain we can meet in the spring.

Actually, it depends on the region. During the winter we come across a mass of tourists in the ski station areas. The holidays will be hard to find a place on the beach, but it will be hard to find as the cheap accommodation in the heart of Paris, where a huge number of tourists coming. Therefore, it seems to me that we go skiing in December - if it snows, or March. However, it is worth going to sea in September. I would choose to discover Paris in April-May or September-October break. Remember that, then increases the chance that we come across a rain.
In fact, every part of France has to offer different things at different times of the year. In the spring, in the south, we see blooming mimosa groves. This view is really amazing.
