Mid May

Hi everyone, thinking of taking "she who must be obeyed" out for a cheeky week in the middle of May for our 20th anniversary.  We've only ever been in the height of summer before, so will all the restaurants be open by then?
I'm thinking the feel of the village will be even more laid back, if its possible?
Then there is the question of weather, i'm guessing that it could be around 20 degrees, and a chance of some rain?

Thoughts would be welcome.

Hi there, we've been mid-May a few times and really like it. The weather isn't as guaranteed but is relatively settled (compared to October for example). Temps can be up to 30c, nights need another layer.

The village is 85% alive with almost all places upon, the beach being the one area that is yet to really spring to life. Though the likes of Havana are full-speed-ahead.

One of the best things at that time is seeing all the fireflys jumping around at night.

Waspman:
Also the bird life (feathered type) is great in May

hippopots:
May is lovely...weather generally pretty good, cooler evenings requiring an extra, lightweight layer. Daytimes don't have the intense heat of August, so is great if you like walking.
Lots of flowers in bloom, and as someone else mentioned, the fireflies are out, which are beautiful, twinkling away at night.

The sunbeds may not necessarily be out all along the beach, but theres plenty of pools to visit.

Also, this year just abbout everyone was open by mid May, so plenty of choice for eating drinking and shopping.

stuthecat:
Thanks everyone for your thoughts, looks like I just need to get it booked.
