August hotter than july in Greece


August really isn’t much different than July in Athens, though it may even be a little hotter with the average high temperature now increasing a degree to 34°C, and the lows still quite warm at 24°C. As the humidity is at its lowest of the year, the dry climate makes the heat a bit more bearable, and you can plan to spend lots of time in the water with sea temperatures even warmer now at 25°C. Bring lots of sun protection and lightweight clothing if you plan to visit Athens in August. (Average Max Temperature: 34°C. Average Precipitation: 6mm.)
Central/Northern Greece in August: There isn’t much change between July and August, though the average high temperature decreases a degree to 30°C. The low remains a pleasant 19°C and there is even less of a chance for rain with only 20mm falling over four days this month. Pack as you would for August, with lots of summery clothing and sun protection, and plan to spend at least some of your time at a pool or by the sea. (Average Max Temperature: 30°C. Average Precipitation: 20mm.)
Peloponnese Weather in August: August is the second hottest month in Peloponnese, the only difference is that the nighttime lows drop a degree to 18°C, and the chance of rain decreases even more, with just 2mm of precipitation on average. The sea temperature is slightly warmer now at 25°C, but taking a dip now should still feel wonderfully refreshing compared to those temps on land. Prepare for the heat by packing as you would for last month, focusing on lightweight summer wear. (Average Max Temperature: 33°C. Average Precipitation: 2mm.)
Greek Islands Weather in August: The temperatures remain about the same in August as they did in July. It will be hot during the day, and rather balmy at night too, with low temperatures relatively high at 23°C. Be prepared for strong winds that often arrive this month as well, which bring the possibility for both boat excursion and ferry cancellations. Pack as you would for last month, focusing on summer wear and sun protection. (Average Max Temperature: 29°C. Average Precipitation: 0mm.)
