Planning on heading out to kalymnos at the end of March and i was wondering if anyone has been out around this time of year before and knows how wet/dry the Tuffas there are likely to be?

cheers

only been there in sep so cant really help you but for some idea try:

http://www.planetfear.com/travel_detail.asp?t_id=29
http://www.rockfax.com/areas/kalymnos/area-info.html
http://www.ukclimbing.com/forums/info/search.php?forum=0&dates=1&name=&topic=kalymnos&body=
quite a bit to trawl through in that one but im sure youll get info on Kalymnos in march

lastly, the guide says:

"Spring: conditions similar to autumn so a superb time to go but theres a higher chance of rain than the autumn. also, if the preceding winter has been wet then the stalactites may drip and will be softer (so more likely to break).

ave temp in march = 12oC, ave rainfall 86.4 mm (compared to 22.9 mm in sep and 162.6 mm in dec)"

i wouldnt be concerned about stalactites dripping / being soft, there is so much else to go at.
