Best Time to Visit
May, June, September, and October offer the best combination of pleasant weather (70-80°F), fewer crowds, and lower prices ideal for sightseeing and beach time. July and August are peak season with hot temperatures (80-90°F), crowded old town and attractions, busy beaches, and high prices, but guarantee sunshine and lively atmosphere. April and early May provide shoulder season benefits with mild weather, blooming flowers, and fewer tourists, though sea temperatures are cooler. Winter (November-March) is quiet with cooler temperatures (50-60°F), occasional rain, and many businesses closed, but offers authentic local life and budget-friendly prices.
