Georgia – What you should know
Georgia has a completely different climate depending on the region: the Black Sea coast (Batumi) is subtropical-humid with over 2,400 mm annual precipitation and warm year-round (15–30°C). The capital Tbilisi in the east is more continental — hot summers (32–35°C) and cold winters with occasional snow.
The best travel time for Tbilisi and the wine region of Kakheti is May/June and September/October: temperatures of 22–28°C, little rain and the landscape in full bloom or autumnal gold. In high summer Tbilisi is very hot; the high mountain regions of Svaneti and Kazbegi then offer cool alternatives with breathtaking alpine scenery.
