Climate
Greece
owes its good climate, one of mild winters and warmsummers cooled
by a system of seasonal winds, to its geographic position. The general
condition of the weather in the Greek seas usually stabilizes in early
summer, and is characterized by bright sunshine and very little rainfall.
However, from April to October, the winds vary significantly from
area to area, in terms of direction, strength and duration.
