Weather shoould be good - might be the occasional shower at this time of year but hopefully not.

Current temps at Heraklion are 80 (right now as I write) and that is about average. You are only staying a week and it is unlikely to cool off during that 1st week. Sometimes gets a bit cooler in the evenings in our 2nd week.

The long range forcast till next Friday looks good with temps in mid 70's. Might be hotter on the South side. Don't know how hot you like it (The Weather) but the above is always hot enough for us. This will be out 7th visit at exactly this time of year and it doesn't vary much.

We we in Plakias earlier in the month. The found the best deal was at Alianthos Car Hire as they allowed a morning to morning hire. This meant there was no rush to get the car back on the final day.

There are quite a few places to hire cars from. With your short notice the best is possibly  to hire locally from within town. I have used the Local firm Ansos Travel often and they are good - email apap@ret.forthnet.gr

This year we are using Caravell (did last year - equally good and a mite cheaper - we thought).

email  info@caravel.gr and/or have a look at [a href=\"http://www.caravel.gr/]http://www.caravel.gr/[/url]

Caravel delivered the car to our doorstep and collected it. Very good indeed.

We are also coming in on 27th for 2 weeks - may see you there. I am one of the Saga Lout brigade but the faithful one who is remainig at Stellla Pension. All the others have deserted me and gone to Appolo.

Wonder what I said  

May see you there - you will have a terrific time. Superb driving trips from Plakias.

John R

PS - for Saga Louts do NOT read Malia. We are a very respectable bunch (I'm told)

No doubt you will get at least one answer about car hire. You will have plenty of company at the Apollon as I know quite a few  regulars (saga louts) are staying there. Look forward to meeting you there.

Just lay back and enjoy yourself you are in for a treat.

Thanks v much. It must be good place to have such 'regulars' and as long as they're not Laga louts, who cares !
