 Climate: Spring and autumn in Greece are the best seasons, with temperatures between 20 and 25?C (70-80?F). It snows occasionally in Athens in the winter months of December through February. The hot month is August, a great time to be on the islands, especially Santorini and Crete. Northern Greece is cooler in the winter than the Peloponnesus.
 What to Wear: The people of Greece are still conservative and traditional in their dress in the countryside, though, as members of the E.U., city folk are fashion-conscious. Sunglasses and sunscreen are the most useful things you can wear-but keep in mind that topless bathing is illegal and the Tourist Police are mindful! Loose, absorbent cottons are essential. Women need a dress or skirt and a head-scarf for touring religious sites-even where pants are accepted, you'll feel more comfortable. Inexpensive light clothing is widely available in marketplaces.
 Temperature & Precipitation: Below you'll find the average monthly temperature and precipitation for major cities in Greece. You will likely experience warmer temperatures because the values displayed are an average of day-time and night-time readings.
