Rhodes weather reviews

Mila, May 2023
We went to Greece in May. The weather at this time is usually stable, precipitation is extremely rare, and if it does occur, it is short-lived. The air warms up to +23-25°C during the daytime. It is better to choose the end of the month for your trip; the temperature at night rises by several degrees, and accordingly, sea water is already considered less attractive for swimming. If at the beginning of May the water in the Mediterranean Sea, which is considered warmer than the Aegean, is +19-20°C, then at the end it is +22-24°C.
Lika, May 2023
I went to Greece not only for the beach and sea, but first of all to see the country, nature, and sights. In May, prices for tours are not yet very high, because... At this time, the tourist season is just beginning here. During the day it’s already very warm: 22-25 degrees, at night it’s not hot, but the temperature is also below 20. The water is warm, also about 20 degrees, you can even swim in the evening if you’re not a cold person.
