It is peak tourist season and it is easy to see why visiting the Emerald Isle in August is so popular. The Irish weather is frequently (or at least can be!) good, the days are long and the average temperatures are likely to be among the highest 12-20 &deg;C (54-68 &deg;F) of the year.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tourists from the United States and rest of the world travel to Ireland to experience some of the best summer conditions during this month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Visiting Ireland during this month is ideal if you want to maximise your options to visit both indoor and outdoor attractions and have plenty of hours of daylight each day to fit in everything on your itinerary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What&rsquo;s the weather like in Ireland in August?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.letsgoireland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Bray-Head-Valentia-Island-Co_Tom_Archer_Failte_Ireland-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Bray Head, Valentia Island, County Kerry, Ireland at sunset.\" class=\"wp-image-4241\" width=\"1536\" height=\"768\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.letsgoireland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Bray-Head-Valentia-Island-Co_Tom_Archer_Failte_Ireland-1024x683.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Bray Head, Valentia Island, County Kerry, Ireland at sunset.\" class=\"wp-image-4241 lazyload\" width=\"1536\" height=\"768\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/www.letsgoireland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Bray-Head-Valentia-Island-Co_Tom_Archer_Failte_Ireland.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-2\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><figcaption><em>Long summer evenings are best spent exploring off the beaten track.

During this month Dublin receives on average about 70 mm (3 &ldquo;) of rain over roughly 11 days or so. The average temperature in August is about 15 &deg;C (59 &deg;F).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.letsgoireland.com\/weather-in-ireland-in-august\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Read our weather in Ireland in August post for more weather and travel information<\/a><\/strong>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Things to do in Ireland in August<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Road trips, long day tours and a diverse range of outdoor activities are all suited to the August weather.
