Title: How Warm
Post by: Davos on December 30, 2007, 03:20:43 PM
Hi
This is my first post on any site like this so hope I am doing it right
We have been to Plakias 8 times in the past but never at the end of May early June like this year.
Can any of you tell us how warm it is then and will we need to wrap up at all at night.

Hi Davos
Well, in mho this is a good time to go.  With luck, the wind won't be too strong (can't say it won't be windy) and the days are warm.  We usually take some kind of cover-up for the evenings whenever we go.  Enjoy!

What Yvonne says mirrors my opinion about the middle two weeks of May. It's a great time to go. You won't need a cover up in the evenings unless you are particularly "tender". You are unlikely to need air conditioning in May either. The sun is particularly high in the sky then, even though it's not too hot, so don't stint on the Factor 20!

We go last two weeks in May although this year we are going on 27th May but to Paleachora.  My experience is it is about 80 in the daytime but we have been when we had heatwave and freak weather when it has hit 90 or more.  Evenings are a bit too cool for me  when the sun goes down and I would definitely recommend a cardigan or a light fleece.

Hallo Mandy,

What a coincidence! I'm thinking of going to Paleochora in May too! Do you have any recommendations regarding accomodation?

Noopsy,

I've stayed in this place twice when I've been to Paleochora:

It's cheap and cheerful, but the rooms are en-suite now. When I first went many years ago, they weren't. It's a good idea to book though as I once turned up on spec and they were full.
