Lesbos is a Mediterranean island with a history and culture that spans thousands of years.  Nestled in the northern Aegean Sea near Turkey, Lesbos, also known as Lesvos, offers travellers a place full of relaxation and arts.

May is the beginning of the tourist season in Lesbos.  The average high temperature rises to 24 degrees Celsius with a low temperature of 15 degrees Celsius.  The rainfall drops again in May to an average of 21 mm over 6 days.  As the resorts and beaches fill with tourists, May is still an ideal time to visit Lesbos before summer sets in. 

While May is a lovely time to relax on the beach, make a trip into the City of Petra and see the Vareltzidaina's House.  This 17th century building was once the home of a Turkish merchant.  It has been renovated and now open to the public as a museum.  The inside is beautifully decorated with rich colours, ornate wooden panels and mouldings.  The details will provide you a glimpse into Turkish culture while in Greece. 

In the heart of Molivos, a town north of Petra, is the Tropicana restaurant and café.  In this restaurant, you can dine outside underneath a centuries old giant maple tree.  This casual restaurant is known for both its Greek and European cuisine.  Tropicana is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner as well as open late. 

For a brand new hotel on the island, the Plaza Palace Hotel is in the city of Anaxos, south west of Petra.  The area is known for its golden, sandy beaches and crystal blue Aegean waters.  The Plaza Palace has a full service bar, traditional Greek restaurant, pool and fully equipped gym for guest use.  Enjoy a short walk through this quaint fishing village to the shoreline to enjoy the beaches and local fishing markets.
