For hiking and exploring the stunning Jurassic Coast, the summer months (June to August) offer the best weather with warmer temperatures and minimal rain. However, spring (April to May) is also excellent for walking and cycling, as the temperatures are mild and the scenery is vibrant with flora. In contrast, winter may bring occasional snow and colder conditions, making it less suitable for outdoor adventures, but cozy hotels in Swanage provide a perfect retreat after a day of sightseeing.
