Paralia Kastraki: Weather Today

📅 Thursday, April 23, 2026
Today is unfortunately not a great day for a trip to Paralia Kastraki. You should expect frequent rain showers throughout the day, which will make relaxing on the sand quite difficult. With the sky remaining mostly gray and thick with clouds, there is very little chance of catching any sunshine. The air temperature will reach a cool 17.3 °C, and the water is far too chilly for a comfortable swim at 17.4 °C. While the wind is calm and the sea is very flat, the persistent wet weather makes this a day better spent indoors. Please keep your umbrellas handy if you must head out, though a beach day is certainly not recommended under these conditions.
