Summers
in Lefkada are reliably long and dry with brilliant sunshine
and generally calm seas. This sort of weather usually lasts
from May to October, with July and August being the hottest
months. In spring and autumn there is generally plenty of
sun although the temperatures are lower than in the summer.
December
to March is the wet and windy period. In summer the wind is
usually very light in the mornings, picking up around noon
(blowing to force 2-5) and dying away at sunset. Sea temperatures
for swimming start at 18ºC/65ºF in May rising to
25ºC/76ºF in August and falling to 21ºC/72ºF
in October.
The climate
in Zagori is similar to the islands, but three or four degrees
cooler. The evenings may seem cooler so a jumper is advisable
even during the summer months.
