Crete is experiencing hot summer conditions today, June 28, with temperatures reaching 33°C (91°F). Strong winds are affecting the island, which may impact beach comfort and sea conditions, particularly for swimmers and those planning water activities. Brief cloud cover is expected in the afternoon in some areas. Tourists should stay hydrated, apply sunscreen regularly, and seek shade during peak afternoon hours between 12:00 and 16:00. Those planning boat trips or watersports should check local wind conditions before heading out, as high beaufort levels can make sea crossings rough or lead to cancellations. Light, breathable clothing is recommended. Weather conditions are typical for late June in Crete and are expected to remain broadly summery throughout the day.
