Last year me and our lass went to Kos Town for the first time
and we really liked it. Maybe because it was the first time we'd
had a holiday on our own--and nobody else to take into
consideration. There are ruins everywhere--even in peoples
back gardens!!. If you like to sit and watch the world go by, then a
visit to the Harbour is recommended. It's especially nice on a
night, when all the Boats that do the daytime excursions are lit up
and bobbing up and down in the water--Magic!!. Prices on the
Seafront can be expensive--so a short (2-3 minute) walk into the
Old Town and maybe a little further is well worth it--less than half
price of the Harbour area sometimes!!. We go in May, because
the tourist season hasn't really taken off and it's not dead, but it's
not heaving either. We are going again on May 5th 2004 to The
Aegean Sun Hotel as we did last year. The Barman (Andonis) is
excellent and we became good friends ( even going out with him
in his own car to visit areas well outside of KosTown ) so we
can't wait to return.
