Holidays by Destination Europe Greece Islands 

The classic Mediterranean holiday with sun and sea, the Greek islands can be dream destinations. It is rare to find areas which are remotely as developed as the French and Italian rivieras for example, and being islands, the water quality is generally exemplary. However, you have to be realistic about the practicalities of the dream. It is seldom luxurious and you need to pick your island with care, bearing in mind the popularity with other visitors, accessibility and what the island itself offers. There is a wide range of landscapes, including very steep, of history, and of course beaches.
