Best Vacation spots for

2020

Greece

Greece in May is no different. If you are after long days at the beach with a
powerful sun enough to give your handbag a tan, visit in June or August when the
weather is perfect. But if you are after Crete, Santorini, Athens and the Parthenon sans

tourist hordes - May is the ideal visit time. The weather should hover around 21°C (69°F) –
perfect for strolling the old streets of Delos or haggling in a Mykonos marketplace. There
is also the Corfu Beach Festival, May Day, and the annual Rhodian Flower Festival, a
colour explosion that takes over the island for a few weeks at the end of the month.
2 Italy

Italy attracts tourists in high summer (June-August). But May is where you will find
the canny travelers. Crowds are down (no five hour queues for St Peter’s Basilica),
flowers colonize every available windowsill and the temperature will be perfect for
sightseeing, with the thermostat set at a balmy 25°C (77°F). There might be a few

showers around at the beginning of the month, but travel after May 15th - you will be
pretty much guaranteed with warm days and breezy cool nights.
