Fear Not.......even if it rains it's usually very warm rain ! We sat through two downpours in 2011 and one amazing four way electrical storm with accompanying monsoon last year. Everything dries out very quickly...so hope the transport is OK. The scent of the island afterwards is amazing ! Not what you'd usually expect but yet another face of a beautiful island.

OK calmed down now. I'm sure the island will look lovely and green afterwards and, despite the forecast, still can't wait for tomorrow.

We sat drinking coffee while it rained then went out to Souda for lunch. Very nice. (not Gallini, the other one). walked around the headland afterwards. Ate at Tasomanolis tonight. Very good it was too.

Hello O0
We would love a review and the name of the other Taverna at Souda Beach. Have eaten there but have never seen the name displayed.
