The flights to Malta & Greece are perhaps the most notable, as they are quite far south, and the climate is warmer in the off-season months of April/May than other places in Europe.
Catania, Italy is also pretty far south, with a Mediterranean climate.

Dealing with a long stopover, either on the way there, or back - Turkish Airlines offers free hotel rooms or tours of Istanbul!
Some of these flights may have a long stop in Istanbul, either on the way there, or back.
You can try picking a flight option with a really long stop (24 hours) - to give yourself a full day to explore Istanbul, if it exists.
Turkish Airlines actually offers a free hotel stay, *IF* your stopover in Istanbul is 10 hours or more, but *only* if a faster flight option does not exist. You can find more info at this link.
OR, if you would like to use your layover time to check out Istanbul, Turkish Airlines offers free tours of the city. They even provide the transportation & meals! You can find more info on the free tours at this link.
OR you can try searching for a flight with a really extended stopover in Istanbul (multiple days), either on the way there, or the way back, or possibly even both, and see if the price works out to be similar.
Here's how...
How to book the flight with an extended stopover in Istanbul
1. You may want to start with an example multi-city search on Kayak, like this one...
