While the weather during these seasons is warm and pleasant, the tourist crowds relax, offering you a more tranquil experience. Springtime is perfect for outdoor activities and archaeological exploration, while autumn invites you to balmy beaches and vibrant cultural festivals. Nonetheless, remember to check the operational hours of attractions and restaurants before your visit for an uninterrupted holiday.
