Athens is sunny and warm throughout the year, so it can be visited at any time of the year. Most tourists prefer to visit Athens in spring and autumn, when temperatures are most reasonable. Although August is very hot, hotel prices decrease during this period and the streets are quieter. Likewise, fewer visitors come during the winter months.
