Temperature in Early May?

I was in Greek islands mid-May (14-15, on), both '97 and '98; Santorini and Crete were warm enough for sunbathing, Mykonos was not. From my experience, I'd say that early May would be iffy, but as with everywhere else, I'm sure it varies from year to year.

Mark,<BR><BR>"Hi. I didn't think I needed to put the word "Greece" if I posted on the Greece board. Thanks, Mark"<BR><BR>There is no "Greece" board. That only works if you are doing a search (which you obviously did not do). Otherwise, all posts go to the "europe" board.<BR><BR>Confused<BR>

It depends where you intending to go. If you go to the Ionian Islands( Corfu, Paxos,Kephalonia etc) expect rain - it is warm enough for tourists but the locals will still be in their winter clothes ! It will ge cold in theeveings and ealry May will def have some rain. Basically if you want to swim sunbathe then go further south, Crete would be your best bet.

There is no Greece board. There is a "search" by topic, the suggestion for a more descriptive tittle is acutually, a good one. M, if all you want is a beach, there is always Jamaica or Aruba where you don't need to be too concerned about the temperatures.

Hi M!<BR>The weather really varies from year to year. For example last April-May i was in Crete and it was pretty hot! Many tourists were swimming..of course for us greeks the water was pretty cold But usually the weather is good and sunny... but with a big possibility of rain also!

I was in Santorini & Crete from mid-April to mid-May, 2000. As a Canadian, it was warm enough for sunbathing in both Santorini and Crete; in fact, I spent most days beachside in Crete. By the second week in May, it was verging on hot. The ocean was still cool, though, but no cooler than mid-August in Vancouver.
