Do you know such a state on the world map where “everything is there”? The joking expression is 100% true: the Greek Republic can be compared to a giant super-resort. The industrial-agrarian country is one of the main centers of world tourism. Resorts in Greece are focused on different categories of travelers.

Crete

The popularity of the largest Greek island bears the imprint of a special mysticism. Agree: the very fact of resting in the “homeland of all gods and people” (this is the role attributed to Crete by ancient myths) sets you up for something special. Every year, 2.5 million tourists rest here. Each of the areas of Crete is unique. The west coast is not so visited by tourists.

It makes sense to choose it for travelers who prefer to enjoy the authentic atmosphere of old houses, cobbled streets, admire one-time sand, spend evenings in taverns tasting national cuisine. The East Coast is great for families with children. There are corners of nature untouched by civilization and luxurious VIP hotels where you can meet world stars at any time of the year.

Heraklion is a city named after the great Hercules. Thanks to the developed infrastructure and the mild Mediterranean climate, you can have a great rest here. For lovers of city life – large and small shops, restaurants – exquisite and family-friendly, as well as entertainment centers and spas.

Rethymno is a place where everyone will find a corner to their liking. This city has many advantages. First, the location. It is quite close to the capital and is located next to the main natural attractions of the island – the Balos lagoon, the Samaria Gorge and others. Secondly, Rethymno itself is very beautiful. Its ancient buildings and streets make you remember Byzantium. At the same time, there are many modern hotels here, and the evening life is just seething. Thirdly, its beaches stretch for a dozen and a half kilometers. There are secluded bays, which are chosen by romantic couples, and “children's” beaches with a gentle entrance to the sea.

By choosing Chania for your vacation, you can save a lot of money. There are not so many tourists here, so the prices in hotels and restaurants are moderate. At the same time, the climate here is better than in other parts of Crete. In summer, the sea warms up well, but holidaymakers do not suffer from the sweltering heat. If Rethymno resembles Byzantium, then Chania is Venice. The old houses here are definitely built in the Venetian style.

Many of the hotels are also housed in historic buildings. As for restaurants, nowhere do they serve such delicious national dishes as here. Those who come to Crete to sunbathe and swim should pay attention to other resort places in this part of the island – Stalos, Elafonissi, Stavros.

Corfu

This beautiful island has been inhabited since ancient times. Moreover, they fought for it, during the wars it often passed from hand to hand. Therefore, the heritage of many peoples is noticeable in the culture of Corfu. This applies to the language, and cooking, and architecture. But the traditions of the ancestors are honored here. They live measuredly and calmly, revere the elders, celebrate local holidays. Ancient towns, remembering the ancient Romans, have now become resorts. Perama and Kanoni, Kavos and Ermones are popular with tourists.

Peloponnese

The resort area is located in the southern part of mainland Greece. It is usually chosen for recreation by those who are interested in museums, picturesque landscapes, many hours of walking in the fresh air. The flow of tourists in this direction is relatively small. There are objective reasons for this: the lack of large premium hotels and entertainment complexes.

It is this feature of the Peloponnese that makes the resort area very attractive for supporters of a healthy lifestyle and medical tourism. The prefecture of Corinthia (north-east of the peninsula) is especially popular with travelers, where healing mineral springs spring. For those who plan to come with small children, experienced travelers are advised to choose Lakopetra.

Hair

A situation unique for Europe and typical for Greece: the status of a major industrial center did not prevent the city from becoming a popular tourist destination.

Thessaloniki

The port city is often called the unofficial capital of the state. It is adored by fans of boat trips, beach holidays.

Syros

Fans of antiquity may find the island strange, boring. What makes it so is the absence of well-known monuments of ancient Greek art, which are found in the state at every turn. However, there is its own archaeological museum in Ermoupoli, the capital of the island. Important advantages of Syros: tranquility and regularity reign here, there are no ubiquitous crowds of tourists.

Milos

A wonderful corner of nature is the result of volcanic activity. The island is famous for its abundance of beaches (there are more than 70 such places of rest) and the ability to surprise. Many mystics consider Milos a place of power, because people (according to the legends) settled it before the Flood. Once upon a time, the first Christians, whose necropolis is open to the public, hid in the catacombs of the island.

The original of the famous statue of Aphrodite was taken away from Milos by the French 200 years ago and placed in the Louvre, but the image is still the subject of numerous disputes and hypotheses. Those who are interested in the history of the ancient world and visiting museums are always happy to rest on the island. The best beach (Paleochori) and the most prestigious hotels of Milos occupy the south coast.

Many travelers specially come to the island to admire the sandy bay of Sarakiniko, its shimmering white rocks. It makes sense to choose Milos for recreation for those who love “educational programs“, prefer to combine beach activities, walks along hiking trails with visits to museum expositions.

Which particular resort to choose for a family vacation depends on the age of the children and the month when the family plans to travel. In summer, you can go to any city located on the sea coast. If the trip is planned for early spring or late autumn, it is worth taking a closer look at Crete, Rhodes, Zakynthos, it is warm there at this time.

For older children, a beach holiday may seem boring. It is worth choosing Crete, Rhodes, take a closer look at the resort towns, where there are water parks, attractions, water activities. Schoolchildren get the opportunity to see the places where, according to mythology, the gods lived.

Monuments of ancient civilization, natural attractions, Orthodox churches and monasteries, where world-famous icons are kept – all this will broaden the horizons of the children, and the impressions will remain forever. Another advantage is that here you can not only relax and go on excursions, but also be treated. There are mineral springs near many resorts, and the healing sea air will strengthen the health of all family members.

Those who suffer from cardiovascular diseases, asthma, metabolic disorders, those who often catch colds can go for treatment. You can buy a tour to a sanatorium or pay for treatment on the spot.

Young people quite often choose Greece for their holidays. There are many resorts where you can have a good time and at the same time save money. Especially popular are the islands of Crete and Rhodes, the peninsula of Halkidiki. In the local resorts, discos and bars work almost around the clock. At the same time, youth parties are located far from places of family recreation, and no one interferes with each other. Holidays on the island of Mykonos will cost a little more – it is preferred by the “golden youth” of Europe.

Noisy and fun you can relax in the area of Kallithea (Chalkidiki). In the high season, there is literally nowhere for an apple to fall, and young people will definitely not be left without new friends. If you want to see other Greek islands, you should take a closer look at Corfu and Zakynthos, these are also interesting options for young people. And, of course, Athens is waiting for energetic young tourists – along with many attractions.

Most tourists perceive holidays in Greece as a beach holiday. In fact, you can come to the country for different purposes. Someone flies here in winter to go skiing, someone is attracted by the opportunity to see architectural monuments in those months when there is no heat.

Some tourists buy a fur coat tour in order to leave the country with a new thing, while others cannot imagine a vacation without swimming in the sea. The beach season officially opens in May.

In addition, May is a very beautiful time when everything around is blooming.

In summer, the resorts are very hot, especially in July and August, the sea warms up to + 25 ° C, and in shallow water up to + 28 ° C. The hottest island is called Kos. And yet, these hot months are considered high season, which means that prices rise significantly. In September the weather is much nicer. The air during the day is heated to + 25-26 ° C, and the sea is still very warm. In October, you can also sunbathe and swim, the water temperature reaches +23°C. Only now the daylight hours are already short, this must be taken into account in your plans. By the end of October it starts to rain and most of the tourists leave.

For those who want to see the sights, it is better to come to the country in the spring, when there is no scorching heat yet. March and April are best. It is already very warm, you can walk in summer clothes, and the prices are still low. Gardens are blooming, and Greece is a real paradise on earth. In autumn, you can also see the antiquities, but there is a risk of staying in a hotel due to prolonged rains.

A lot of tourists come for Christmas and New Year, prices go up. From December to April, skiing enthusiasts gather at the ski resorts – there are about two dozen of them. There are very beautiful views here, and the snow lies only on the slopes of the mountains, but you will not see it in the valleys.

Such is beautiful Greece. Generous and hospitable, you will definitely like it.
