There are other places to see flowers, too: Amsterdam, Noordoostpolder, and Noordwijkerhout among them.ĭuring the two-day National Mill Day (see more below), almost 1,000 windmills and watermills across the Netherlands open to visitors. These are among the largest gardens in the world. Where to Goįlower and gardening enthusiasts shouldn't miss the Keukenhof Gardens, irrespective of the crowds. You'll encounter big crowds at the most popular flower-viewing spots, such as the Keukenhof Gardens in Lisse, but the sight of seven million flowers in bloom might be tempting anyway. Book accommodation and flights as far in advance as possible, especially if you plan on spending time in ever-popular Amsterdam. May is a popular time to visit the Netherlands (although it's not as busy as summer) and with the blooming tulips and other flowers, you can also expect to see many locals out and about at popular attractions. The weather may be wet or it may be sunny, so build a combination of indoor and outdoor activities into your itinerary. May is late spring and temperatures can range from cool to warm: expect average daytime temperatures of between 53° F (12° C) and 64° F (18° C).
There's not much geographical variation around the small country, but the inland south tends to be a bit colder and the coast windier than elsewhere. If you've come from North America, you will likely find the Dutch weather comfortable in May, as it's not too warm or too cold. As a low-lying coastal country in Northern Europe, the Netherlands generally experiences mild, damp, and changeable weather in all seasons.
