Greece, Santorini Katikies
Greece is a beautiful island offering sun drenched beaches, secluded coves, diverse countryside, rugged mountains, cosmopolitan cities and isolated islands. Pretty flower-filled villages are home to whitewashed churches that contrast starkly with the deep blue of the Ionian and Aegean Sea. Learn about ancient civilisation and the places that inspired the Greek legends by exploring the ancient sites and monuments. Taste the excellent local cuisine prepared by some of the most friendliest, relaxed people in Europe and relax whilst watching a bustling harbour scene, or a golden sunset. Visit historical Athens, the Acropolis and the ruins of Parthenon or head to one of the beautiful islands, over a fifth of the Greek land mass is comprised of islands, several thousand if you count every floating crag! The Ionian 'Emerald Isle' Corfu offers a mix of lush pine-clad mountains and soft sandy beaches. Discover hidden coves and sandy stretches, historic ruins and homely tavernas on Thassos or if you are after a bit more action on your summer holiday to Greece then maybe Crete or Rhodes with their well known party capitals would suit you better. Santorini, Samos and Kos all offer picturesque countryside and peaceful seclusion.
