Hi There At the moment the weather is changable but getting warmer by the day.It's around 20c during the day but it cools down at night.The water is around 18c so just about warm enough for a quick dip Royby pedro - Halkidiki
Dolphins - 16 years ago
Morning all on this sunny day. We saw some Dolphins yesterday.It's a shame that they don't get close enough to see while we are diving but it's still a pleasure to see them on the surface. The water is still nippy but it has warmed up a degree so should continue to riseby pedro - Halkidiki

Re: scuba diving - 16 years ago
Hi Rose. You will be coming out at one of the best times of the season.All the bars etc will still be open and busy but not so jammed packed as it is in the high season. it should be hot 30-35c with little rain.the sea around 28c. We are located about 15 mins from Hanioti. We do run snorkeling trips along the coast and sometimes to Kelifos Island.Have a look at www.odysseydive.com or emailby pedro - Halkidiki
Re: scuba diving - 16 years ago
at the moment it's 14c but by July it goes up to around 28c.By the end of April it will be around 18c so similar to the UK.The water is clear and clean so if you swim in the sea in the UK you can do so here.by pedro - Halkidiki
Re: scuba diving - 16 years ago
In April and May the weather is generaly hot and sunny but it can be chilly at night.Also you can get a couple of days of rain here and there.You shoul go home with a sun tan thoughby pedro - Halkidiki

Re: Hotel Palladium - Kriopigi - 17 years ago
the sea and the beaches were clean before the end of last season.You will not see anything in the water or on the beacesby pedro - Halkidiki
Re: Hotel Palladium - Kriopigi - 17 years ago

scuba diving - 17 years ago
Well thats the winter over.I did some diving as usual in Egypt.Great diving but so crowded. I'm looking forward to diving with Odyssey dive club again this summer.Small groups,shore and hard boat diving and many new sites to discover.Ideal for families as they finish diving early so no earache for the ones left on the beach or bars. Hope to see some of you over there. Pedroby pedro - Halkidiki
Re: DRIVING TO GREECE - 17 years ago
If you have Sat Nav it will give you the route or any of the route planners from the RAC or the AA. If you do not want to pay all the tolls in France then drive from France up into Germany down to Italyby pedro - Halkidiki
