Greek Islands |
The Greek Islands are a collection of more than 1,400 islands and many more islets off mainland Greece - just 227 of which are inhabited. The islands vary in terms of landscapes and tourism infrastructure, with some far more commercialised than others, but they all enjoy a wonderful climate, great beaches and delicious cuisine.
The islands are clustered into several groups, the best-known of which are probably the Cyclades (central Aegean Sea), the Dodecanese (between Crete and Turkey), the Ionian (west of the mainland) and the Sporades (along Greece's east coast).
The Cyclades – including the popular islands of Santorini, Paros and Mykonos - are the stuff of Greek postcards, with picturesque whitewashed villages tumbling down rocky mountains to beaches and the sea.
Rhodes, the largest and most popular of the Dodecanese islands, is steeped in history, attracting hoards of tourists not only to its many lively beach resorts but also to explore the significant historical sites dotted about the island. Tourism is also well-established on the pretty island of Kos, which has some pristine beaches.
The Ionian group includes several well-known islands. The largest, Kefalonia, is an idyllic island made famous by the film Captain Corelli's Mandolin. Corfu attracts package holidaymakers to the north and east coasts, while elsewhere it's more laid-back. Lefkas is conveniently connected to the mainland and is home to the famous Porto Katsiki beach, backed by dramatic white cliffs. Zante offers it all: beautiful, densely-vegetated landscapes; gorgeous beaches; and a mix of lively resorts and quiet coves.
The verdant islands of Alonissos, Skiathos and Skopelos are the best known within the Sporades group. Alonissos has some really pretty, secluded beaches, red cliffs and fishing villages, while nearby Skopelos and Skiathos provided the filming locations for 2008's blockbuster film 'Mamma Mia'.
