After spending two weeks in Tolon in May, on my first ever holiday in Greece, the response was 'quiet' but loved the holiday! Always being a Spanish - Costa Del Sol sort of person, Tolon is perhaps not my first choice of holiday options, but seeing as I was badgered into the holiday by my partner, I fell in love with the place. Although it is a quiet resort, their is an overwhelming feeling of tranquility and calm where ever you go. Tolon is ideal if you are a couple or single parent with children as you know that they will be perfectly safe padling in the large shallow bay, the beach at one end of Tolon is a little pebbley but the other end by the harbour is quite sandy. Myself being a little afraid of the sea was more than happy to do the usual hoiliday dip, without any fears of drowning ! The nightlife is very low key here, but very enjoyable, its one of those resorts where you have to make your own entertainment. The main road, which is a cul de sac and ends at the harbour is full of Taverna and bars, so picking somewhere to eat was very difficult. The meals varied anywhere from £2.50 up to £12.00 for a three course meal including wine. The best option is to go for the house wine as its often better than the bottle, which we found out! All in all Tolon is a great place to relax, although it is quiet and offers a brill holiday for all ages. The nicest part though was to sit on the beach in a little taverna drinking wine in the country that the grapes where grown in (excuse the pun from Shirley Valentine)! Tolon is a good place to be for a quiet tranqull holiday.
