Greek Island Holiday Help


Ah really??

She said its almost decent all year round, the islands and Cyprus currently front runners.
We go to Rhodes in late September or October and weather is always fine. Went out on 5th October last year and weather was great. Sun obviously goes down a bit earlier and a bit cooler at night. Off out there for 3 weeks about same time. Been doing same time of year for years.
 
Big shout for Koutafelari in Crete,went in June, very nice indeed, currently in Dalyan in Turkey, 40plus degrees and full of scroates, saw our new home shirt last night for sale in town for 8quid..canny copy anarl
Visted Koutouloufaris last year, great atmosphere. Liked Old Hersonnisos next door too. Sofas taverna is class.
 
Have you ever been to Parga Town mate , on mainland Greece , it’s very similar to Skiathos town

Crete - Chania was nice , beach not the best but really nice on an evening and loads going on
Looked at Parga about five years ago, very nearly booked it.. Fancied it and visiting Paxos and Anti Paxos but a good friend went and said Skiathos Town was better and that put me off.
Like the look of Chania too. Never been. Our lass won’t do islands without an airport so I’m restricted.
Did you have a good time in Skiathos ? I saw you were there recently.
@Fletch clear your inbox marra.

2 weeks Friday and I’m back in Tsillivi. Love the place


Called the Getaway now
Ah is it, I stayed in Mavrikos hotel years ago. Just looked it’s now called Altura Hotel.

I quite fancied Tsillivi again but ended up booking Alykes. It’s boiling over there at the minute.

Aye I’ve been keeping an eye on it. The random bush fires have started up again cos of the heat 😏 Never had a bad holiday in Greece
 
We've went all Inc the last 2 with the bairn so just the odd few meals out rather than every night, but in years of going we yet to have a bad meal.

We love staying at Planet normally, that’s self catering. We find you struggle to spend your money in the restaurants. We’re AI at the TUI Suneo this time up the other end. Cannot wait

The admiral? That's where we are this week.

Did Petros the other year. Dated but canny.
Karras Grand alright for an AI but the food was dog shit so we went out
 
October could be dodgy weather. I noticed last October Turkey had great weather as did Cyprus. Crete was not so good.
Places like Corfu, Skiathos, Kef close before October half term

I agree. I always noticed a big drop in temps by September. It'll still be warmer than home though at least.
