Klima Tropiko (Greek: Κλίμα Τροπικό; English: Tropical Climate) is the name of a Greek album by singer Anna Vissi released in Greece and Cyprus in February 1996. It reached 2× Platinum, acclaiming both critical and commercial success and establishing Vissi's image as a pop icon and contemporary artist in both Greece and Cyprus.[1][2] In 2000,Hülya Avşar covered the song in Turkish as "Sevdim" ("I loved").
In 2019, the album was selected for inclusion in the Panik Gold box set The Legendary Recordings 1982-2019. The release came after Panik's acquisition rights of Vissi's back catalogue from her previous record company Sony Music Greece. This box set was printed on a limited edition of 500 copies containing CD releases of all of her albums from 1982 to 2019 plus unreleased material.
