AGISTRI (Island) ATTIKI
Agistri's climate is the typical climate of Greece and especially
of areas which they combine sea and mountain with extended pine forest.
More specifically, during the summer there is ample sunshine with
temperatures that rarely exceed 35° C (95° F) on very hot days and on
normal levels of humidity.
The winter, most times, is quite cold with rain and snow at times.
The winds are quite strong but the temperature does not drop at very low levels
due to the fact that Agistri is an island and there is water all around.
