May is an excellent time to visit San Francisco, offering comfortably mild weather, fewer crowds than peak summer, and a vibrant cultural scene. While San Francisco’s weather can be unpredictable, May usually brings milder temperatures, fewer rainy days, and a greater chance of sunshine than the colder, wetter months.
Daily high temperatures are around 67°F, rarely falling below 60°F or exceeding 77°F. Bring a light jacket or windbreaker. San Francisco City Guides always recommends wearing comfortable walking shoes on our tours.
