Peristeres Beach, Greece - Beach Guide, Info, Photos

Summary
Full Forecast

Today is a mediocre day for a visit to Peristeres Beach, primarily suited for a relaxing stroll rather than traditional beach activities. The skies remain mostly grey with thick cloud cover throughout the day, so you will not be getting much direct sunshine. With a maximum air temperature of 16.4 °C and a sea temperature of 14.5 °C, the water is far too cold for swimming. Despite the calm waves and light breeze, the cool air makes lounging on the sand less than ideal. If you do head out, be mindful that the UV Index is 6.15, meaning protection is still necessary even under the clouds. It is a quiet day at the shore, best enjoyed with a warm drink and a light jacket.
