Crete is experiencing cloudy skies and scattered rainfall on Monday, May 25, 2026, according to the Greek Meteorological Service (EMY). The unsettled weather is affecting the island broadly, with rain showers expected throughout the day. Tourists visiting outdoor sites such as the Samaria Gorge, Knossos Palace, or beach areas should plan accordingly. Carry a light waterproof jacket and check local conditions before setting out on hikes or boat trips, as trails may be slippery and sea conditions rougher than usual. Road surfaces can also become slick during rainfall, so drivers should exercise caution, particularly on mountain routes. The weather is typical of a late-spring transitional period and is expected to be temporary. Indoor attractions such as museums and local tavernas remain a good option while conditions persist.
