 The climate of Greece is the Mediterranean on coasts and islands.

Spring is pleasant and sunny in most of Greece. The days with some rainfall become less and less frequent.

Summer in Greece is hot and sunny.

Autumn in Greece comes quite late; in September, summer-like weather still prevails, especially in the south and on the islands.

“The Meltemi winds” are often mentioned in Greece. They are dry, katabatic winds, strong, and seasonal, which appear all over the Aegean. Depending on where in Greece you are, they may come from the north, north-east, or north-west.

If you are familiar with the Beaufort wind scale, the Meltemi winds can reach around 7-8 Beaufort, or even more. In certain parts of the country, the winds may occasionally be exceeding speeds of 100 km/hour! However, even the Meltemi has its positives. It provides cooling, good visibility, and moisture reduction.

In April, May, and June, just as in September and October, a stable and reliable Mistral wind blows in the Aegean and the Ionian Sea. There are no strong Meltemi winds during this time.
