🌤 WEATHER SUMMARY & NUANCES: May in Amsterdam is a delightful but fickle mistress. Expect crisp mornings ( 8°C) warming up to a pleasant 18°C under the North Sea sun. The "Layer" Strategy: Essential. A windproof jacket is your best friend against the canal breezes. Light & Time: With sunset after 21:00, you have massive "golden hours" for photography. Footwear: The historic center is paved with uneven cobblestones; leave the heels behind and opt for stylish, waterproof sneakers.
