Long-term coastal averages; the mountains run roughly 8-12°C cooler.

What July is good for

  • A sea most pools would envy: 26-27°C
  • Guaranteed sunshine for the whole trip
  • Night swimming, open-air cinema and full-moon beach events
  • Mountain villages 10°C cooler for day trips

Worth knowing

  • Do sites like Kourion at 08:00 or after 17:00; midday stone radiates heat.
  • The east coast sandbars (Nissi, Fig Tree Bay) are glorious early morning, packed by 11.
  • Never leave anything in a parked car; interiors exceed 60°C.

Good to know
