Greece enjoys warm Mediterranean climate. In the northern part of the country and coastal regions, the summers are dry and hot but the stiff breezes ensure that weather does not come in the way of tourists’ joy. The capital city of Athens gets particularly hot and humid during the summer months. Thus, travellers are advised to give themselves sufficient time to get acclimatised to the change in weather. The southern part of the country enjoys mild winters, while they are extremely cold in the north. The rainy season in Greece lasts from November to March.
Travellers should wear light clothes during summers throughout the country. Protective wear from the hot sun is also advisable during summers. However, evenings are cooler even in summers; so, light T-shirts should be worn during this time of the day. Autumns could get wetter with rains and therefore, visitors should carry waterproofs while on an excursion trip in Greece during Autumn. The winter clothing should be medium- to heavy-weight.
