I want to start discovering some new places to enjoy in Greece - or maybe even rediscover old favorites. I go to Greece fairly often - not quite every year - but I try to go as much as possible. I thought I would make a list of my favorite places. I want to hear about yours, as well!

- Chania, Crete - It's historical, beautiful, and there are some great area beaches. Crete is wonderful.
- Oia, Santorini - so charming
- When I am in a party mood, Super Paradise Beach on Mykonos
- Acropolis in Athens
- Rhodes - it's a beautiful island!

Let's see..

I also love Chania in Crete. In fact, I love the whole island.

I also love exploring the Athens area beyond the city center. Like, I alway make it a point to head to Sounion when in that area to catch the Temple of Poseidon at sunset.

My favorite place is our village. Why? Because it's in the middle of nowhere, so no one speaks English which means there are no tourists!

Outside of the village, I really enjoy ioannina, trikala, and volos.

What to know about the 'beach towel revolt' taking back Greek beaches

Across Greece, locals are taking matters into their own hands by throwing their towels down to reclaim their beaches and access to nature – without the hefty price tag.

I sincerely hope by commencement of the next season proper laws, rules and regulations are in place to be fair to all travellers,I doubt very much if anyone has the power to do anything about this in Mykonos!😂😂

Good Spas in Greece

Is it common to find spas while in Greece? I have bumped into some information about them, but I don't hear a lot about people who visit them.

I will likely be in Greece for a while - several weeks - and I am thinking I might need a down day or two.

I will be visiting Athens, Aegina, and Santorini on this trip.

Help Packing for Greece Trip

I am starting to make my pack list for Greece. I plan to get there at the end of August. What is the weather like? It's been a while since I've been and I need answers to some questions:

- Does it get cold at night?
- Should I expect some rain?
- How are the winds? Will I need a windbreaker?

Also I am curious about fashion stuff... what do the women tend to wear in Greece? I know that's vague, but I don't want to look totally like a tourist in my wardrobe.

UNESCO Sites Near Athens

I decided to narrow down my list to UNESCO sites in Athens to see. I will be here long enough, and I plan to prioritize the 2 or 3 I really want to see, and then see if the rest happen.

Here's my list:

- Acropolis in Athens - could probably spend a day here - seems like there's a lot to see
- Delphi - I am hoping to be able to do Delphi as a day trip?
- Meteora - is this possible on another day trip?

Did I miss anything? I know I want to do Acropolis and Delphi, not sure I will have time for anything else.

Best Off the Beaten Track Islands in Greece

I recently had some friends tell me about their trip to Greece, which involved Mykonos and Santorini. He said those two places were so busy, it ruined the enjoyment of it.

We are planning a trip to Greece next year and want to try some smaller islands that are more like "hidden gems" than tourist traps. Someone told me that Aegina is a nice place, as well as Paros. Do you guys have any advice other than those two islands?
