    What’s the weather like in Greece in January?

    Located in the south of Europe, Greece enjoys a mild Mediterranean climate with warm summers and cooler winters. January is a pleasant yet mild month in Greece, despite being one of the coldest months of the year. Although temperatures can be brisk, it’s often much warmer than the UK, so holidays to Greece in winter can be a good way to avoid the icy weather back home. Cloudy days are quite frequent, and with a moderate risk of rain it’s worth packing a waterproof in case of wet weather.
