The most comfortable weather conditions in Niagara generally occur from mid May until mid September. Our peak season (and the hottest months) are during the months of July and August. After Labour Day weekend until towards the end of September, the temperatures are still mild and it's the ideal time to arrive in order to avoid the crowds.
