Greek IslandsIsland hopping the Greek Islands is a perfect way to explore the ancient civilisation of Greece, the stunning sandy beaches and traditional mountain villages that are spread across the many islands of Greece. Use holiday-s.co.uk to book and organise your island hopping trip.

It is very easy for people to enjoy island hopping the Greek Islands as ferries connect the islands to each other and to the mainland. Many start their trip in Athens, from where they take a ferry to one of the nearby islands of Salamina and the Saronic Islands.

The most popular of all Greek islands are Rhodes, Kos, Crete and the Dodecanese Group, all of which are the Aegean Sea. These islands are famous for their inclusion in many ancient Greek legends and myths, and are nowadays popular holiday destinations for their stunning coastlines and great weather.

Holiday-s.co.uk can help you with planning island hopping the Greek Islands, and advise you on ferry services in the country, where the best places to visit are and the best attractions to see. The ancient palace of Knossos on Crete, the ancient town buried under volcanic ash on Santorini (known as the Greek Pompeii) and the vineyards of the Ionian Islands are all top draws of the islands.

Between hopping islands, relax on the islands’ beaches, explore the old villages and try the local cuisine, including such national favourites as moussaka – a type of meat casserole, stifado – a type of meat stew, and also the famous Greek salad with delicious feta cheese.
