Kalamata — Weather today

Kalamata is in the southern Peloponnese, beside the Messenian Gulf, with the Taygetus mountains rising behind the city. Conditions can feel different along the long waterfront, in the old town, at the castle and on roads toward the Mani beaches. A 24 hour forecast is useful because of bright sun, sea breezes, summer dryness, winter rain and wind that can quickly change conditions by the water.

Kalamata is usually classified as having a hot summer Mediterranean climate in the Koppen system (Csa). In summer, daytime temperatures often sit around 29-33°C (84-91°F), while winter is commonly about 10-16°C (50-61°F). Rain is most frequent from late autumn to early spring, summer is almost dry, and weather in the Taygetus mountains can be cooler and more changeable than on the coast.

Before walking Navarinou promenade, visiting Kalamata Castle, the old town, the Church of the Holy Apostles, the Archaeological Museum of Messenia or Verga and Almyros beaches, check temperature, wind, precipitation and UV. The hourly forecast helps decide when to go to the beach, climb to the castle, walk through the centre or drive along the gulf.
