How about a trip to Cyprus
A Brief Summary
Not all of this eastern Meditteranean island is adorned with bars and clubs, some of it is highly rural and mountainous, very traditional and often as laid back as your granddad after his evening glass of Port. Some of it however, is not. The towns of Larnaca and Limassol are the largest on the island and have a wealth of bars and clubs, and further east, in world-renowned Ayia Napa, there is enough to keep even the hardiest clubber content for several weeks! May is warm, dry and sunny and the one of the only places in Europe at this time of year to be fully open to tourists, so if you fancy dancing or drinking the night away in May, head to Cyprus!

About the Weather
Cyprus has a warmer and sunnier than average, Mediterranean climate. Winters here are mild, averaging 16°c during the day and 6°c at night and mostly bright or sunny. Cold weather can affect the region during winter and the Troodos mountains are often snow-capped from December to February, although lowlands rarely if ever see snow. Spring is warm to hot, fairly dry and mostly sunny, with temperatures ranging from 19°c in March, to nearly 30°c during the latter part of May. Summers are hot, or very hot, very sunny and very dry, with rainfall rare. It is the warmest and sunniest region in the Mediterranean and averages at least an hour a day more sunshine than most places in Italy and Spain by comparison. Heatwaves during summer are also frequent and temperatures of 40°c or more should be expected several times a year, anytime from June to early September. Autumns start hot and very sunny, and even by late November temperatures of 20°c or more are common, with rain only reliably starting during the month of November, carrying on through to March and occuring every 3 to 5 days on average.
