Summer in Greece

A getaway sounds just perfect. A final chance before winter comes. A last time to enjoy the beach, the drinks, local specialties and cuisine!  So - where to go?

In Greece you can wander around traditional paths, take pictures, rent your own bicycle and explore new destinations!  

Visit Cyclades

Sifnos, the island of Apollo (above) is located in the southwestern part of the Cyclades. With and area of just 74 square kilometres and about 70 kilometres of coastline, the island is adjacent to the Cycladic islands of Serifos, Kimolos and Antiparos.

Known since antiquity thanks to its gold and silver mines, Sifnos today is an island of endless natural beauty due to the diversity of its soil, of the totally green landscapes with age-long olive groves, in its mountain ranges, its fertile valleys and its blue waters. The island is an authentic and attractive island that slowly reveals its breathtaking beauty to its visitors.

Or why not try trekking in Pellon, one of the most beautiful areas of Greece. An extraordinary mountain with variegated vegetation and a view to the sea. If you see only Pelion, you will have a good idea of why the remaining Greek landscapes are so attractive. As you ascend you are overwhelmed by the green, as you descend you encounter some of the most amazing beaches in Greece. From the the mountainside, you can see 24 traditional villages - true folkloric and architectural treasures.

Go on! Enjoy yourself, recharge your batteries, summer is still here.

Sail the islands

Perhaps you prefer to see Greece from the water. Why not sail the enchanting Greek Islands with Australian Sailing Adventures from Athens aboard a skippered luxury charter yacht. That way you can enjoy relaxed summer sailing, as well as the harbourside cafés, bars and tavernas at destinations including Aegina, Poros, Hydra, and Spetses. Then you may swim in secluded bays, enjoy evening sundowners with dining on board and onshore when in port.

Two departures have been confirmed for 2015 from Alimos Marina, Athens: 8th July, and 20th July. More details.....
