Climate in north west Crete |
|
Rather than confusing you with fancy meteorological charts (although we do that too), we write this from direct experience so that you get an idea of how it feels to live here year-round. The north west of Crete has its own micro-climate: in winter and spring, the prevailing north-west winds are pushed upwards by the Gramvousa and Rodopos peninsulas, causing clouds to form over the Gulfs of Kissamos and Chania, and provide higher rainfall than in other areas of Crete. Hence the lush green coastal plain and proliferation of vineyards and olive groves, and the concentration of villages in the north west region. |
