Weather by month
Pensacola
Florida
A Gulf Coast city with genuine seasons: a wet, chilly winter, a hot and stormy summer, and two beautiful shoulder stretches in between.
The best time to come
May is the beach pick — warm water, long days, and the least rain of the year. October and November hand back the good air with the Gulf still comfortable, and the Blue Angels close out their season in November.
