Based on typical March conditions in Lisbon. Weather varies year to year — check the live forecast when you're within two weeks of your trip.

March softens Lisbon's winter edge as highs climb toward 64°F, yet about 9 precip days still slick Alfama's labyrinth of stair-streets. Atlantic gusts at Belém and along the Tagus can chill a mild afternoon, so a packable windproof layer over breathable neutrals works better than a heavy coat. Miradouro evenings stay cooler than midday—bring a light jacket for Bairro Alto and viewpoint sunsets. Grippy walking shoes remain essential as hills dry unevenly between showers.
