Climate

Global climate change makes generalising about Aegean weather unwise – 2018 and 2019 saw freak storms until July – but you still stand an excellent chance of blue, rain-free skies between late May and mid-October. Midday temperatures may reach a sweltering 38ºC (101ºF) during summer, with warm nights, although evenings are cooler early and late in the season when daily highs are about 30° C (86° F).

The northerly meltémi wind buffets the northwest coast of Kos, cooling it significantly all season. Kálymnos, Léros and Pátmos can also be very breezy, though Pátmos’ east coast (where most beaches are) is relatively calm.

The first autumn storm usually hits late September or early October, but serious rain does not commence until December, falling intermittently until May. Winter outdoors can be very pleasant but the sea is too cold for most bathers until late April.
