Santorini
Santorini have a special mention as the most popular Greek island. The answer to the question by many people: “What is Greece famous for” can be the spectacular sunset views from Oia, the northernmost village of such small beautiful island. Everyone has observed those blue-domed churches and white-washed walls. It seems like an elegant scenery.
Iconic Santorini is the favourite destination of choice for many first-time travellers. And it’s not just first destination for solo travellers, honeymooners are well catered for too. ATV tours are popular around Santorini. And there’s a huge list of fun experiences such as beautiful sunset cruises, cliff-jumping, hike at Caldera and wine tasting.
Athens
Athens is a mix of rich history and contemporary cool. The cultural and social life of Athens plays out amid, around and in landmarks that are centuries old, if not millennia. The remnants of Ancient Greece get the most attention, of course, thanks to a little thing called democracy. Oh, and mythology, and drama, and philosophy. But don’t overlook the ‘later’ years: thousand-year-old Byzantine churches, for instance, which squat, unruffled in the middle of streets and attached to hillsides. Ottoman traces can be seen in architecture and in food. And the neoclassical style of the 19th century adds elegance all over the centre.
Crete
Crete is home to fascinating historical sites and some of the best beaches (such as the famous lagoons of Elafonisi and Balos) and hiking in Greece. The north is developed and home of the best resorts for nightlife; you won’t have to stray far for a party or organised excursions. There’s a good selection of hostels available if you want to be sure of meeting other travellers – check out Intra Muros in Heraklion, the stylish Cocoon City in Chania, and Rethymno Youth Hostel in Rethymnon.
Crete is a land of ancient myths and wild beauty. Once you’ve let your hair down, hop on a bus to the island’s remote south for some exploration.
Mykonos
Popular Mykonos is the home of glamour in the Greek islands, with a nightlife (and prices) to rival Ibiza. Take one helping of upmarket boho-chic partying and mix it with gleaming white Cycladic architecture and fine sandy beaches and you get Mykonos.
Partying here is centred around Paradise and Super Paradise beaches and in Mykonos Chora. Of the two beaches, expect a more sophisticated vibe at Super Paradise and bigger beach parties at Paradise. Mykonos is one of the best islands in Greece for beaches – check out x and x to escape the crowds.
