Discover the Greek Islands….
The Greek Islands have captivated travelers for centuries. From ancient legends of gods and heroes to fantastic beaches, they offer unique opportunities for one-of-a-kind holidays. Check out these travel guides to some of my favorite Greek Islands.
CYCLADES
The Cycladic group boasts iconic destinations such as Mykonos and Santorini. Famous for their white-washed architecture, crystal-clear waters, and exciting nightlife, these are among the most visited destinations in Greece.
DODECANESE
Near the Turkish coast, the Dodecanese is home of tales of ancient civilizations and medieval influences. Rhodes, with its medieval city, and Kos, adorned with ancient ruins, stand as testaments to the region’s past.
IONIAN
This group includes popular destinations such as Corfu, Kefalonia, and Zakynthos. These islands are known for their green landscapes, Venetian architecture, and blue seas.
ARGO-SARONIC
Close to Athens, the Saronic Islands, including Aegina and Hydra, are perfect for a quick escape from the mainland, offering a blend of Neoclassic architecture, history, and natural beauty.
NORTH-AEGEAN
Located in the northeastern part of the Aegean Sea, this group includes Lesbos, Thassos, and Chios. Home to maritime stories and medieval architecture, these islands preserve the most authentic Greek traditions.
CRETE
Crete is the largest and perhaps most diverse island in Greece. The Tiny Book was born as a place to discover everything about Crete, and in this section you will find the most valuable guides to visit Crete like a local!
