Hi
WE have been to various Greek islands over the years, although not since 2001- can anyone give us any tips on the best islands or resorts for weather in early May?
We like a nice beach, fairly lively nightlife, and some stuff to do during the day too
Can anyone help?

Early May can be iffy, your best chance has to be well south maybe Crete or Rhodes, even Cyprus is not certain at this time of year.
I was going to say the same. May in Crete is hot enough to sunbathe without being too hot, certainly early or late season I would head south to Crete or Rhodes.

We went to Kephalonia in early May and the weather was lovely, got a nice tan, not too hot. However, pools and sea were freezing.
Been to Rhodes in early May and the weeather was glorious
We stayed just outside Laganas in a village on the beach, Aghios Sostis. We could walk into Laganas if we wanted and that had some nightlife
For us with 2 kids it was fine until about 11pm.
As Nicola above states zante can be lovely as early as April.
I went to Laganas 2004 10th - 24th May and it was fantastic weather with only one slightly overcast day in 14. Visiting other parts of the island i noticed that the Laganas bay area got more hours of sunshine and was virtually windless compared to other resorts. i swam in the sea most days and spent a couple of days scuba diving and found that i would swim in and out of warmer areas, it wasn't a problem.
It's not just the time of year you need to choose the resort carefully to get the best weather early in the year for any island.
Hi,i have been to cyprus in both april and may and the weather was super both occasions-late 20's and i was able to swim in both the sea and hotel pool,we stayed in limassol and ayia napa and both were fairly lively without being mad which was fine,cheers Mark
