Climate and Weather
28-01-2015 13:40Greece is famous worldwide for its climate, which is typical Mediterranean, with plenty of sunshine, mild temperatures and a limited amount of rainfall.
The climate in Greece varies because of the geographical position, the rugged relief and the distribution between the mainland and the sea. The occurrence of different climactic conditions, even during the same season, is usual in Greece, so you might experience heat in coastal areas and cool temperatures in mountainous regions.
In general, during summer season the days are dry and hot, cooled though by seasonal winds, the known “meltemia”, while mountainous regions have lower temperatures. The winters are mild in lowland areas, with a minimum amount of snow and ice. The mountains, however, are most of the times snow-covered.

We found the best scandinavian bar in Naxos!
Touristorama has been travelling all around Greece and its islands for over a decade. This year, during our trip to Naxos, the biggest of the Cyclades complex, we discovered an interesting spot, perfect for your night out on the island… which is what we do best: finding the best places and then propose you should visit them! Prime is a Scandinavian Bar, located on a privileged position in Chora of Naxos, opposite the port. It’s been operating for 21 years and enjoys a great fame to both foreign and local tourists.

We have been choosing Parea Tavern for our meals and dinners for 14 years!

Thousands of tourists include it among their favorites on the volcanic island.
Santorini has a secret... but we have to share it.
It opened in 2004 and soon became one of the favourite dining spots in Santorini. It is called Metaxy mas which means.. between us, but it is not a secret any more that this restaurant has a rich menu with almost 40 different dishes and appetizers based on traditional Greek cuisine.
Something old, something new.... Marmita combines them both!
The Marmita Restaurant is now a part of the history of Santorini, since it has been operating in Megalochori since 2004. From 2013 it s been running under the observation of new owner Giannis Manikas and the sense of renewal is obvious.

Aktaion - Writing gastronomic history since 1922
Like a relay race of three generations; a journey with happy days, sad days, joys, sorrows, wars, Occupation, poverty, hunger, deaths, volcanic eruptions, catastrophic earthquakes, flee for a better life, return, better days, feasts, tourism explosion, financial crises and so on… Everything has been indelibly inscribed on the walls of this small building, Aktaion. I feel grateful that life has given me the opportunity to hold the reins of Aktaion all the way to its centennial.
