Crete is experiencing hot weather today with light northerly winds (vorias). Temperatures are expected to be high across the island, typical of the summer season. The light breeze will provide some relief, particularly along coastal areas and beaches. Visitors should take standard summer precautions: stay hydrated, apply sunscreen regularly, avoid prolonged sun exposure between 11:00 and 16:00, and seek shade during peak heat hours.

Light, breathable clothing is recommended throughout the day.
