Paralia Ampovos: Weather Today

📅 Friday, July 24, 2026
Today is definitely not the day for a trip to Paralia Ampovos, as unstable weather conditions are expected to arrive. With thunderstorms forecasted throughout the day and significant rainfall likely, the beach will be far from ideal for relaxing or sunbathing. Please stay clear of the shoreline during the storm, as lightning and sudden downpours pose a genuine safety risk to beachgoers. Although the air temperature will reach 26.6 °C and the water is warm at 28.6 °C, the frequent lightning and heavy rain make swimming dangerous and unpleasant. If you were planning to head out, it is much safer to stay indoors until the weather clears. Even with breaks in the clouds, the UV Index of 7.85 means the sun remains very strong, so keep your guard up if you are outside later.
