Who said fun trips had to end with Summer. October is the best time for a luxury vacation around the islands of Greece for many reasons. From exploring the villages to touring the main artifacts of the islands, October is the perfect time to do so as the weather is chillier and less hot and the islands are not overcrowded, presenting visitors with the perfect opportunity to meet the locals and live amongst them.
The month of October is an excellent time to treat yourself to a Greek sailing vacation and take advantage of the sparkling, turquoise waters and breathtaking surroundings. Relax and sail among the islands, Tan on the deck under the glistening sun, blend into the salty waves, and visit various harbors and ports filled with shops and restaurants.
While you can enjoy all those activities during the prime months of the summer, experiencing them in October is a whole other adventure, and here is why.
October is the first month of the fall season, which means that the Greek weather is cooler than the summer time. The lack of the Meltimi winds this time of year, presents sailors with the perfect opportunity to take their boats and cruise the waters. With an expectation of only 5-6 days of rain on the mainland, exploring is an ideal activity during the season. In addition, for those whose plan consist of beach days all day every day, October is the month for you. Not only are the UV rays significantly weaker in October, making it safer for you and your skin, but the water temperature deal for swimming, with the warmth of the summer months still lurking.
Greece, as we know it, is filled with historically rich artifacts and structures, but visiting them and taking in all their glory can be a hassle in the summer time. With peak visiting season being over, October becomes quieter, with less tourists therefore more time to pause at all of the most significant sites from Greece’s ancient past.
With the holiday season practically gone, October is a much more affordable time of year, with boat costs and air fares at their lowest. Inversely to summer months, some of the local shops also open on Sundays. And so, the combination of the cheaper prices, splendid weather, no crowds, and late closing hours, makes Greece in October the ideal vacation spot.
