<strong>seeking the best weather<\/strong> in Santorini, plan your visit for <strong>July or August<\/strong>. However, these months coincide with peak tourist season. If you <strong>prefer a quieter<\/strong> atmosphere while still enjoying warm seas, <strong>June or September<\/strong> are ideal alternatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>High Season (July and August):<\/strong> Santorini sees over two million visitors annually, with the majority arriving during these peak months. July and August offer perfect swimming conditions, with daytime temperatures often exceeding 30\u00b0C. Be prepared for large crowds and higher accommodation rates during this time.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Transition Season (May, June, September, October):<\/strong> Temperatures remain pleasant, ranging from 20\u00b0C to 30\u00b0C, and the sea stays warm enough for swimming. With fewer tourists, you can enjoy a more relaxed atmosphere and slightly lower prices.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Low Season (November to April):<\/strong> These months bring cooler temperatures, often dropping below 15\u00b0C, and the sea becomes too cold for swimming. Many hotels and restaurants close during this period, but it\u2019s an opportunity to explore Santorini without the crowds and experience authentic Greek life.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>Moon<\/th><th>Average air temperature (\u00b0C)<\/th><th>Average sea temperature (\u00b0C)<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>January<\/td><td>12 &#8211; 16<\/td><td>16<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>February<\/td><td>12 &#8211; 16<\/td><td>16<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>March<\/td><td>13 &#8211; 17<\/td><td>16<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>April<\/td><td>15 &#8211; 20<\/td><td>17<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>May<\/td><td>20 &#8211; 25<\/td><td>19<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>June<\/td><td>24 &#8211; 29<\/td><td>22<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>July<\/td><td>26 &#8211; 30<\/td><td>24<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>August<\/td><td>26 &#8211; 30<\/td><td>25<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>September<\/td><td>24 &#8211; 28<\/td><td>24<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>October<\/td><td>20 &#8211; 25<\/td><td>22<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>November<\/td><td>17 &#8211; 22<\/td><td>20<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>December<\/td><td>13 &#8211; 17<\/td><td>18<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Where to find the cheapest and best tours to Santorini<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the best and most affordable tours to Santorini, I recommend using <strong>the<\/strong> <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.invia.cz\/?aid=7861551\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.invia.cz\/?aid=7861551\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Invia<\/a> portal<\/strong>.
