🌤 WEATHER SUMMARY & NUANCES: Expect pleasant spring warmth with daytime temperatures around +20°C (68°F). May is beautiful but unpredictable; carry a light waterproof jacket for sudden showers. Logistics Tip: Venice is a labyrinth of bridges. Wear comfortable shoes with non-slip soles, as the Istrian stone can be slippery when wet. Acqua Alta: Check the Venice Tides app; even in May, high tides can occasionally splash onto St. Mark’s Square.
