When to Visit

Visiting in the summer months (June-August) grants you beach-worthy weather but be prepared for the tourist influx. Conversely, if you're after a bit of tranquillity and don't mind the occasional drizzle, touring Peloponnese in the winter months is a valid option. With fewer tourists, you can navigate places at a leisurely pace.
