- You are more likely to get waves in winter when the weather is frontal. The summer meltemi winds may be strong, but do not have enough density or spread (they are thermic and usually it is far windier on the downwind coast rather than the upwind (in the case of the meltemi, the north part of Greek islands are less windy).
In winter though, the winds are all over the aegean, not only near the islands (thermic phenomenon) and you get some ok waves (maybe big ones too! )
