Wind Forecast
General Weather Info
Amorgos has a temperate Mediterranean climate. The winter is relatively mild with really strong winds. The summer is hot, with the cooling “meltemia” (north winds) during August.
The best period to go is during the Easter period (April, May), when the weather is cool, the temperature not too high and the tourists almost absent. Easter is also an occasion to enjoy the local festivities. September and October are also very good months to visit the island, since the weather is perfect, neither too hot nor cold, most tourists are gone and it is a great opportunity to see the traditional way of life of the inhabitants of the island and enjoy hiking on a “green island”. This will also be a perfect time to collect herbs.

But the weather in Amorgos also is peculiar: you may be enjoying the beaches of the east coast while, at the same time, Chora has rain or has fog. This is the case even during the summer, and sometimes you may find yourself looking at two opposite weather phenomena occupying different parts of the island at the same time.
