Summary
Full Forecast

Today is an underwhelming day for a beach visit at Megali Ammos, as strong winds and choppy waters make for an uncomfortable experience. With a maximum air temperature of 17.3 °C and a sea temperature of 16.1 °C, it is far too cold for swimming, and the rough waves make entering the water dangerous. While you might see some sunshine, the intense wind will make relaxing on the sand difficult and unpleasant. Due to the high UV index of 7.15, please remember to wear sun protection if you decide to take a walk along the shore. Given the current conditions, it is best to skip the beach today and enjoy the island scenery from a more sheltered location.
