The Weather

This, I'm sure you will check on elsewhere, but usually from the middle of May it starts to get reasonably warm.

Late May and June, to me,are the best times to come, it is not red hot and there is still some greenery on the island.

July, August and early September are the hottest times.

Late September into early October generally have some lovely days, not too hot to be uncomfortable but hot enough for the beach and to get around a bit as well.Late October, if you are lucky can be beautiful but on the other hand there is a risk that the weather will start to change and there could be some rain.

The other thing to know is that Kos is a windy island (that is why it is so good for wind surfing) and it is rare that there is not a breeze blowing in from the sea.

This means that even in the height of Summer, usually there is some movement in the air so you don't feel stifled.

Just to prove that it does rain I have included this photo because lots of people don't believe it. This was taken in December I hasten to add!!
