For beach holidays June and September are the perfect months.
July comes close to perfection too, when the island becomes more lively. August is a beautiful month, but is peak season. The pleasant sea breeze (Meltemi wind) tames the heat.
April and October are mild and sunny months, but you can still fall on the occasional gray-sky day.
The seawater temperature ranges from 20 to 26 degrees Celsius, which makes it enjoyable to swim the whole year round.
