The climate of Gouves on the island of Crete (Greece)
Gouves is a small coastal town on the north side of Crete located on the Mediterranean Sea. Gouves is situated in between the popular seaside resorts of Heraklion and Chersonissos. Gouves is known for the many archaeological finds from the Minoan period. Many of these sites can be freely visited. Because Gouves is situated in the vicinity of Chersonissos it is an ideal destination for those who want to party at night but don’t want to be among the many tourists during the day and want to enjoy some of the authentic Greek culture. Just as other places on Crete Gouves has a Mediterranean climate with warm and dry summers and mild and wet winters. The coldest months during the winter are the only period during the year in which the climate is unpleasant in Gouves. During the rest of the year temperatures are pleasant, especially when the sun shines.

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather, extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate information for each month of the year:
