Greek Islands ... the fascination and mystique!

Greek Islands ... Greek Islands ... Greek Islands ... Greek Islands ... Greek Islands ... Every time Greece is mentioned, up pop the Greek Islands. What's up with that? Well, if you've never been there before, you have to visit one, at least once in your lifetime. From then on, we guarantee that you will be hooked!

Part of the magic that we call Greece (or Hellas, as the Greeks call it = the country of light) are all those little jewels dotted throughout the Aegean Sea. North, south, east and west, you'll find a fantastic Greek Island wherever you go. Large, small, and everything in between, they complete the Greek circle of life and what it means to live in this magnificent country.

When you think of the mainland, you think of the cradle of democracy, the beginnings of Western Civilization, the Classics, historic monuments, great Philosophers and their ideas, comedy and tragedy ... certainly a place well worth exploring! It's a destination surely at the top of your list. But, if you stop there, then you haven't "done" Greece.

What can you expect to find when you visit a Greek Island ... beyond the obvious sun, sea and sand? Well, it does take a special sort of person to live on a Greek Island. And yes, there is an island mentality and a distinctly different kind of island pride. On an island, your world is smaller, more intimate, friendlier, kinder and sometimes a little bit more difficult. Islanders seem to have more patience than city folk; they stop to listen and exchange pleasantries; they work hard and diligently, but know that the job can be finished tomorrow; they really do take a moment to stop and smell the flowers.

Islanders have a close attachment to the sea and are aware of its presence at all times. When you live on a small piece of land totally surrounded by the sea, you begin to learn about the movement of the sea, the winds, the vagaries of nature, and the meaning of peace and the concept of beauty.

So, whether you choose cosmopolitan Mykonos, magical Santorini, magnificent Rhodes, the variety of Crete, traditional Tinos, or any of the many, many other fantastic islands (more than 300 of them are inhabited!), either alone or in combination, you are heading for a journey of discovery to be treasured for a lifetime.
