Weather in late May??

(1/3) > >>

Woodman:
Now that our son is at school, we're resigned to taking our holidays over half term rather than risk the wrath and a fine from the Govt. So, rather than risk the August heat, we're returning to SS in the half term at the end of May, much earlier than our previous visits in Sept 2012 and mid June 2013.  What do you think we can expect from the weather and will everything be open in the village?  Given its half term, I assume there'll be plenty of other holidaymakers getting their first summer fix of SS.

Lesley:
Everything or almost everything will be open we have our first guests at Vicky's as many in resort have from May 2nd......pop in and say yassou......

If weather is good as well most trips again depending on winds/weather will be up and running....bring a cardie though as nights can be chilly/damp.......

And remember in May we still have the lovely fireflies as evening descends upon us......

D@G:
We have been in the same position as you the last 2 years, not wanting to risk the August heat and unable to holiday outside of term time. The last 2 years we went to SS for the last week of May/first week of June.

In 2012 the weather was glorious for 13 out of our 14 days. Around 30°C most day with a gentle wind.

In 2013 the weather was really hit and miss. Most days were cloudy and even on the hotter days there seemed to always be a strong wind which made you feel quite chilly. I believe this was the case right into July too?

Also the pools (and the sea) haven't warmed up too much and can be quite chilly in my experience.

Apart from that all tavernas and bars were open for business.

The resort was relatively quiet (compared to peak season) and there were not very many other children in the resort. We travelled as a large party in 2012 so didn't really notice whether there were many other children but in 2013 there were very few.

I would definitely holiday in a May/June again though but have chosen August this year instead.

Gavlah1973:
We went third week in June last year and it was still windy then

dibully:
We went the second and third week in June first week we were there was really warm 30 degrees every day and warm at night the second week was very windy all week not the usual two or three days when there is a Mistral and was quite chilly quite a few people ate inside at the Nafsica and nobody ate outside at Beachcomber for 6 nights I blame Gavin all went downhill when he arrived !
