Saturday, 20 June 2026/SourceGoogle News/1 min read
Crete is expecting warm temperatures on Sunday, with highs reaching up to 30 degrees Celsius across the island. Conditions are typical for early summer and mark a continuation of seasonal heat building across the eastern Mediterranean. Visitors should plan outdoor activities, beach trips, and sightseeing for the morning hours when temperatures are more comfortable. Stay hydrated, apply sunscreen regularly, and seek shade during peak afternoon heat between 12:00 and 16:00. Lightweight clothing and a hat are recommended. Most tourist sites and beaches across Heraklion, Chania, Rethymno, and Lasithi will be fully accessible. Swimming conditions are expected to be pleasant given the warm air and sea temperatures.
