Nantes Travel Forum

Hi all,

Am visiting Nantes in the february first week. How will be the climate over there (especially temperature ranges) and what sort of winter clothes i need to carry there? Please reply asap..thanks in advance...

You can expect it to be quite cold to mild 8 -14 degrees and possibly wet. It is a good idea to take plenty of layers :- T-shirts, shirts, jumpers, a light jacket or fleece and a waterproof coat. And good shoes - not open sandals.You may get some sunny days but not terribly very warm.

weather is difficult to predict, we had a run of very cold weather a week ago,but right now for the next few days, Nantes should have about 6-12 C degrees, cool but not cold i think. anyway a rainjacket is a must. warm clothings but nothing so bulky. good walking shoes.otherwise normal. IN Nantes you get the ocean temp as well so layers of clothing is better than one big piece.
I was there recently and much colder than now, i had three layers of t shirts, cardigan and my coat rain proof.

Several layers of thinner clothing are always much warmer than one thick layer, e.g. t-shirt under shirt under sweatshirt, so pack accordingly. You can easily add or remove layers as the need arises.

You may also find hat, scarf, umbrella and gloves useful, depending what temperatures you are used to.
