Crete is set for a hot and sunny Sunday, with temperatures reaching up to 34°C across the island, while inland and northern Greek regions will see mercury climb as high as 38°C. Skies will remain clear throughout the day, making it ideal beach weather but demanding caution during peak hours. Tourists should avoid prolonged sun exposure between 11:00 and 17:00, stay well hydrated, and apply high-SPF sunscreen regularly. Lightweight clothing, a hat, and sunglasses are strongly recommended. Those planning outdoor activities such as hiking or sightseeing should schedule them for early morning or late afternoon. Coastal areas will benefit from light sea breezes, offering some relief. Water and shade should be prioritised, especially for children and elderly visitors.
