Travel Tips for Adventure Tours in Greece
- If you are heading to Crete to surf, you must take seasons into account. While Paleochora beach is ideal for winter, Chania is the place to go during summer. Falassarna Beach enjoys good swells all year round, but ideal conditions can be found during the summer months.
- The best time to plan your Greece adventure tour is from April to May or from September to October when temperatures are moderate and precipitation levels are low.
- Make sure to take your sun cream with you, as the Greek sun is always strong, regardless of the season.
- When biking on the road, always pay extra attention to the traffic. Greek drivers are known for going fast and not paying too much attention to bikers.
- Remember that even though Greece is on the Mediterranean Sea, it can get extremely cold here during winter. So if you are visiting in the winter or heading to the mountains, remember to bring warm clothes.
