Batumi in March
Not the best time
March teases spring but delivers inconsistent weather that can frustrate travelers. Prices stay low and crowds remain thin, making it decent for budget-conscious visitors who don't mind gambling on conditions.
Weather
March shows the first real signs of spring as temperatures climb into the teens. Rain becomes less constant but still frequent - expect about half the month to be wet. The Black Sea starts looking less angry, though swimming is still out of the question.

All Months
April through October gives you the sweet spot – dry weather, calm seas, and water visibility that makes the coral reefs look like they're lit from within. The humpback whales show up between June and November, turning your morning coffee into a wildlife documentary. But here's the trade-off: July and August bring South African school holidays, which means higher prices and busier beaches. May and September offer the best balance – great weather, fewer crowds, and reasonable rates. December through March brings the rains and rough seas that can cancel boat trips and diving excursions. The heat gets oppressive too. Skip it unless you're chasing the cheapest possible rates.
