Rhodes Weather & Climate

The climate of Greece is typical of that of the Mediterranean: mild and rainy winters with extended periods of sunshine (including the mythical 'Halcyon days') and warm and dry summers. Rhodes boasts one of the best climates in Greece, with more sunshine hours than any other island.

From late spring through early autumn this is the perfect location for your holiday. Cloudless blue skies, high temperatures and crystal clear waters reign throughout the summer months. Temperatures range from 16-22° in April/May rising to mid to high 20's in June through to September, dropping to mid-teens to early 20's in October/November.

Rainfall is almost non-existent in the summer months and the Meltemi (a north to northwest wind) blows regularly in July and August, keeping the high temperatures bearable. Evenings in spring and autumn are cooler and may necessitate a pullover or jacket, surprise storms mean a cagoole or an umbrella is a good idea.
