We’ve all seen it before: Around this time every year, our Instagram newsfeeds are flooded with countless #wanderlust posts from idyllic Mediterranean destinations; the shores of Santorini, St. Moritz and the Almafi Coast to name a few. The upshot? We get to ogle next year’s hottest vacation spots and plan our next getaway.
While it’s impossible to compare: the 6000 tiny islands which make up the Greek Islands (only 227 of them are inhabited) have to be among the most beautiful places on earth. From the party and revelry of Mykonos; to the romantic sunsets of Santorini and the untouched beauty of Paros. There’s the perfect island for every holiday goer.
Here, a curation of the most awe-inspiring Greek destinations to inspire your next vacation.
