There’s always someone on holiday there, you don’t really get that “everything’s closed and deserted” phase. That said, the mood shifts. Winter is packed with people fleeing northern weather, so you’ll notice it in how early sunbeds get claimed and how far ahead you need to book Christmas and New Year trips.
Summer brings families, especially around UK and European school holidays, and the beaches take on that “everybody arrived at the same time” look. Spring and autumn away from big dates like Easter feel calmer, you still see visitors but you’re not weaving through crowds just to get to the supermarket.
