Crete weather reviews

Tatiana, October 2023
The weather in Crete in October is very summery. The days were sunny, only occasionally cloudy. We had a full beach holiday, with daytime temperatures around 25°C and a warm sea of 23°C. We explored many areas of the island, visited the botanical garden, olive farm and famous caves. We had a wonderful holiday with the whole family in a warm and mild climate, without sultry heat and rain.
