Cultural connections

Some Greek Islands serve as living museums, offering a treasure trove of ancient archaeological sites and traditional practices preserved through generations. In Santorini, world-famous for its white hillside homes, you can find the ruins of the ancient city of Akrotiri preserved under volcanic ash.

Those looking for a taste of Greek culture would also love Rhodes Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage site with seven centuries of history within its walls, or Corfu, a melting pot of cultural influences combining Venetian, French, and British heritage.

Natural beauty

For nature enthusiasts and beachgoers, the island of Kefalonia or mainland peninsulas of Halkidiki offer idyllic landscapes, from turquoise waters and golden beaches to lush green forests and serene lagoons. Both areas give the shores of the West Indies a serious run for their money.
