Back to newsThursday, April 23 brings the latest weather forecast for Crete. April is a transitional spring month across the island, typically offering mild temperatures ranging from 16 to 22 degrees Celsius, with a mix of sunny spells and occasional showers, particularly in the mountainous interior and northern coastal areas. Winds can pick up along exposed coastal roads and ferry routes, so visitors planning boat trips or hikes should check local conditions before heading out. The eastern parts of the island around Sitia and Ierapetra generally remain drier than the north and west. Tourists exploring outdoor sites such as Knossos, Samaria Gorge, or the Lasithi Plateau should carry a light waterproof layer. Road conditions in mountain villages may be affected after rain. Always verify the latest local forecast before planning full-day excursions.
