Real-time weather, water quality, wind shelter, and smart recommendations for 5,758 beaches across the Greek mainland, Cyclades, Dodecanese, Ionian Islands, and Crete.
Regions Covered
BeachScan covers beaches across Greece's vast archipelago and mainland coastline. From the world-famous caldera beaches of Santorini and the party shores of Mykonos to the long sandy stretches of Crete and the emerald bays of Corfu, every region has detailed live conditions.
What Data Is Available
Every Greek beach in BeachScan is updated with live conditions from official meteorological sources and EU environmental monitoring. With Greece's notorious Meltemi winds in summer, wind data and shelter scoring are especially valuable for choosing the right beach.
Live Weather
Air temperature, wind speed and direction, cloud cover, and precipitation. Especially important during Meltemi season in the Aegean.
Water Quality
Official bathing water classifications from the Greek monitoring programme, live across the country. Greece consistently ranks among Europe's best for clean bathing waters.
Wind Shelter
Critical for the Greek islands where the Meltemi can make north-facing beaches uncomfortable. Find south-facing sheltered coves instantly.
7-Day Forecast
Plan your island-hopping itinerary with daily beach forecasts. Know which island will have the calmest conditions each day.
Tides
A live tide curve with the day's high and low water times for every Greek beach. Small in the Aegean, but enough to matter on shallow shores and rock shelves.

Our algorithm analyzes weather, water quality, and wind to recommend the best beach near you, whether you are on Crete or Corfu.
