There is a lot to see in Greece, with many islands to choose from, each offering something different and unique. With so many options, it is essential to understand what type of experience you are after, romantic, active, or budget-friendly. Here are our top tips for traveling to the Greek Islands.
Avoid Peak Season
Unless you are bound to school during the summer holidays, try to visit outside the peak season (July-August). While the weather may be the best at this time of the year, you will need help to escape the crowds. Going in the colder months (January-March) may have slightly colder weather, but the scene is still as beautiful.
Take in the History
While there are plenty of resorts and bars to check out, we also recommend carving out some time to visit the ancient ruins. There is plenty of attractions to check out, to better understand the Greek Islands’ history and culture.
Island Hopping
Many tourists who visit Greece tend to stick to one island. Island hopping was the biggest thing in the 70s and 80s, so why not bring the craze back? You can explore more than one island in a week, with easy access to ferries that will get you where you need to be without hassle.
