With the winter not quite behind us, March is the most unpredictable month when it comes to weather in Greece. The strong northern wind Vardaris comes and goes and temperatures typically vary from 5 degrees Celsius to 14 degrees, with an average temperature of 10. The weather changes rapidly in March and one day may be totally sunny, with a spotless sky, and the next may have torrential rain, which reaches 50mm on average this month- well above the yearly average rainfalls in Thessaloniki.
For an authentic yet unusual Greek dining experience, visiting the Ouzou melathron tavern is a must. With thousands of positive reviews and affordable prices, Ouzou melathron is one of the most popular dining spots in Thessaloniki. The menu is full of innovative and delicious dishes. The atmosphere in this cosy tavern is always hospitable and the service is top-notch.
When not raining, March is a great month to visit the Magic Park, Thessaloniki's major theme park. The Magic Park is full of fun activities such as the Flash Tower, which raises people 40 meters in the air and then plunges them with extreme speed downwards, and the flume ride which is a full-blown water coaster. For the less adventurous as well as for the children, Magic Park offers a variety of fun games and events including magic shows and a staggering array of arcade games.
