Santorini has so many amazing, volcanic and very unique beaches to swim at and visit.
Here are a few more beaches to consider checking out while visiting Fira:
- Kamari Beach
- Koloumbos Beach (near Fira but had to mention it since it is a very quite beach)
I would recommend that everyone visit the WW2 museum while visiting Thessaloniki.
Here is a good list of other museum to visit while in Thessaloniki:

My favorite toppings to put on a Greek style would be the following:
- Greek feta cheese
- Kalamata olives
- Greek oregano
- Eggplant
- Hamburger or Sausauge
This would make a great Greek style pizza!
Here are a few Greek desserts that might be great for the Fall season:
- Baklava (every season is good baklava season LOL)
- Karidopita (Greek walnut cake)
- Pasta Flora
- Pita with squash or pumkin

Great point! There is no halloween (like the US) in Greece. I would compare apokries in Greece to be a bit more like mardis gras than Halloween.

Giannis Antetokounmpo (Greek freak) is a Greek national treasure, the best player in the NBA and (we have heard) a great person.
Here is more information about the meeting:

Personally, I am not a fan of big chain hotels in Greece (other than airport Hilton, which I have stayed at and is truly amazing). Especially on the Greek islands my thought is leave it independently owned and operated...those are my 2 cents :)
