The purpose of the research is the examination of the climatic characteristics, indexes and coefficients in the Ohrid area of vineyards. In the region under study the average annual air temperature was 11.5 deg C, and the vegetative air temperature had a value of 16.7 deg C. The annual temperature sum was 4198 deg C, and ranged from 4033 deg C to 4524 deg C. The vegetative sum had a value of 3570 deg C, and it ranged from 3326 deg C to 3754 deg C. The annual rain sum was 665 mm, and ranged from 483 mm to 927 mm. The vegetative rain sum had a value of 342 mm, and ranged from 200 mm to 541 mm. On the basis of the values of effective temperature sum. it can be concluded that the Ohrid area of vineyards belongs to the climatic zone B. The values of the hydro-thermic coefficient indicated that in the area of vineyards, where the research was conducted, there was an irregular schedule of humidity. The helio-thermic coefficient had a value of 4.4. The bio-climatic index had a value of 7.7, and ranged from 4.8 to 15.2. The results of this research indicate that the Ohrid area of vineyards is favourable for production of table and wine grape for varieties that ripen from the 1st to the 2nd epoch.
