It's the side of a volcano full of wedding parties

 

Literally 99% of everyone there is at a wedding

 

Nice place, very small, we stayed in Fira which is the main town and is on the steep slope looking in at the centre of the volcano

 

Loads of nice places to eat, foods really good, great views as well

 

Beaches are shite on the other side as its volcanic

 

Get a quad bike, everyone's on them, we watched the first half of a game in a boozer on one side of the island (Kamari) and made second half kick off back in Fira

I've never been, but a guy at work went for 2 weeks and he said 2 weeks is too long there. I think cruise ships stop there quite often, might be wrong though.

P.s it's due a eruption apparently, last one 1500 years a go wiped out the Minoans or something - it's one fucking huge volcano

 

Luckily they recon they will get at least a months notice next time she blows

 

We will all know about it when it does

 

Anfield will be empty

PIssed down all week when I went about this time 10 years ago. Would've been beautiful if it was hot. Wouldn't bother going to see the 'active'part of the volcano again - it's basically a tiny bit of steam coming out of a black swamp.

 

Oia was the best bit. Spend as much time there as you can. Sunset is worth it if you're with the mrs.

Sounds like Boltons forward line for large parts of this season.

I was on bing when I went in 2005, thanks to the cliffs etc I was on edge most of the time.

I'd agree with the two weeks being too much

 

Even a week is boarder line

 

If I was doing our trip again it would be 5 days there then a ferry to another island close by

Friend went last year, loved it.

Worth a punt ?

Well after all that, I've booked hotel Lapad, Dubrovnik.

Thanks y'all!
