Back to newsRain is continuing across Crete on Saturday, April 25, according to the National Observatory of Athens and meteo.gr. Showers are also affecting parts of the Southern Cyclades and Dodecanese islands. The wet conditions are expected to persist through the day, with rainfall varying in intensity depending on location across the island.
Tourists visiting Crete this weekend should plan accordingly. Carry a light rain jacket or compact umbrella if heading out for sightseeing, hiking, or beach trips. Outdoor activities in exposed areas such as the Samaria Gorge or coastal paths may be less comfortable than usual. Road conditions can deteriorate quickly in heavy rain, so drivers should exercise caution, particularly on mountain roads. Check meteo.gr for updated forecasts before planning day trips, as conditions may differ significantly between the north coast, south coast, and inland areas.
