What's the weather like in Kos in July?
The weather in Kos in July is really hot and sunny. It is rare to see a cloud in the sky during the day, so make sure you don't fall asleep whilst sunbathing or you can quickly burn! It is perfect weather for lounging around a pool, and if you go sightseeing on the island be sure to carry water and a hat, stay in the shade and maybe avoid the sun around midday. The nights are also hot, so no need for a cardigan, coat or wrap, but definitely best to have a fan or air conditioning in your room if you want to stay cool.

What should I pack for a holiday in Kos in July?
Definitely pack your sunscreen, as you are going to need it. And pack your shades and bathing costumes for around that pool. A hat is an essential if you are going sightseeing, as the archeological sites can be real sun traps. Similarly, I was quite glad that I packed floaty dresses and shorts to stay cool. Finally do pack your camera, as there are plenty of places to get some great shots.

What's great about Kos in July?
Kos is great in July as it is busy and vibrant. We stayed near Kardamaina, which is a buzzing party town on a night. It is also a small enough island that you can easily explore the place if you hire a car for a few days. We loved Kos Town, which is a maze of small streets with shops, bars and houses. So much history to see! And if you wish, there are ferries and boats that will take you over to Turkey for the day, so you can visit a different country!
