Is July too hot for Greece?

Greece in July is invariably hot, averaging 81°F (27°C), in Athens, athough most of the islands can be a little cooler thanks to the sea breezes. The Meltemi winds blow over the Aegean island groups and help keep the Cyclades, especially, from being too hot. This is dry season, too, with little chance of rain.
