Hello RethymnoHello RethymnoSpring (April to early June) and autumn (mid September to October) are the sweet spots for the Rethymno district, with mild temperatures, fewer crowds and prices well below July and August. Spring brings hillsides of wildflowers and orchids and ideal gorge and mountain hiking around Psiloritis and the Amari valley, with average daytime temperatures near 19 degrees Celsius in May. Autumn keeps the sea warm at roughly 22 to 24 degrees into October, so south coast beaches like Plakias and Agia Galini are still swimmable while hiking is comfortable. Nights are cool in both seasons, so pack a layer, and note some seasonal beach services wind down by October.
