Choosing your Greek island

Greece has more than two hundred inhabited islands, and each has its own character. Santorini is famous for sunsets and romance, Mykonos for its lively towns, Crete for its size and variety, and Rhodes and Kos for great family beaches.

Direct flights from the UK serve most of the larger islands in summer, and ferries connect them, so it is easy to visit more than one.

Athens and the mainland

Athens is perfect for two or three nights of history before heading to the islands. The mainland coast, from the Peloponnese to Halkidiki, offers quieter beaches and great value.
