It was still beach weather about a month ago, but when I was there I could tell it was getting cooler. Out of curiosity, did you end up going this year?

Thank you! I am most interested in finding information about Sani Beach. I didn't make it there last time I went.

Tips for Visiting the Dodecanese Islands

Hi everyone! I’m planning a trip to the Dodecanese Islands and could use some advice on which islands to prioritize. There are so many to choose from—Rhodes, Kos, Symi, Patmos, Karpathos, Astypalaia, and more—but I won’t have time to see them all.

I love a mix of history, beautiful beaches, authentic Greek food, and charming villages. I’d love to visit at least one island with a lively atmosphere and another that’s more off-the-beaten-path. If you’ve been, which ones stood out to you the most?

Also, any general tips for visiting the Dodecanese? Is island-hopping easy between them? Are there ferry routes that work well for multiple stops, or would it be better to focus on just 1–2 islands?

How much money to take to Greece?

I’m starting to plan the money side of my trip to Greece and was wondering—how much should I realistically bring with me? I know it depends on travel style, but I’d love to hear what others spent daily on average for things like meals, local transport, entrance fees, and small extras like coffee or souvenirs.

I’m staying in mid-range accommodations that are already paid for, and I’ll be visiting both Athens and a couple of islands. I’d like to enjoy the trip without worrying too much, but I also don’t want to bring way more than I need or rely too heavily on cards.

Do most places take credit cards now, or is cash still king? And how much should I carry on me at any given time? Any tips for ATMs, budgeting, or knowing what’s “enough” per day?

Appreciate any insight from recent travelers. Thanks in advance!

Easter in Greece

I would love to spend next Orthodox Easter In Greece. I am curious if anyone who has traveled to Greece over Easter has recommendations as to where to specifically spend the holiday . I’ve been researching and the celebrations look fabulous all over!! Suggestions??♥thank you in advance

Best Greek Beaches for First Time Visitors?

I'm basically asking for a friend — it's been decades since I was a first-time visitor to Greece, so I don’t really remember what that fresh, wide-eyed perspective feels like anymore. I’m definitely biased when it comes to Greek beaches… Elafonissi in Crete is hands-down my favorite, and of course I already told my friend to put it on their list.

But I figured I’d ask you all: what are the best beaches in Greece for someone visiting for the first time?

They’re looking for something beautiful, memorable, and not too hard to get to. Bonus points for spots with nearby tavernas or charming villages. I’d love to pass along some of your suggestions so they can make the most of their trip.

So — what beaches made you fall in love with Greece the first time you went?

Recommendations on Greek Cruises?

I’m thinking about taking a cruise to explore the beautiful Greek islands, but I’m overwhelmed by all the options out there! I’d love some recommendations for Greek cruises that offer a mix of stunning scenery, cultural experiences, and authentic Greek food.

I’m particularly interested in smaller cruise lines or ships that give you more time to explore the islands, especially places like Santorini, Mykonos, Crete, and maybe some of the lesser-known islands. Are there cruises that include unique experiences like local cooking classes, wine tastings, or guided historical tours?

Also, I’m curious if anyone has tips on the best time of year to go, what to look for in a cruise line, or any “must-see” stops that I shouldn’t miss.
