“God gave watches to the Europeans…
…and time to the Greeks”

Greece is 2 hours ahead of Universal Time (UT+2).
Like most states in Europe, Summer Time or Daylight Saving Time is observed in Greece, shifting time forward on the last Sunday in March by 1 hour: (UT+3).

After the Summer months (on the last Sunday in October) the time is shifted back by 1 hour: (UT+2).
