I know that when in Athens, it is an easy ferry ride to Aegina. One can easily do the outing in a day ... but is that really wise? It seems like Aegina is a great place to visit and that there is actually a lot to do there.

I mean, I love the beach, so I can send a whole day at one beach alone.

My question is, do you think it is a good idea to spend like 3 nights or so there? I think it seems like a nice, quiet retreat. Since I have never been, at this point I am just speculating.

Aegina
I would say most certainly yes... but when are you traveling?...read up the reviews, they are positive!... Happy traveling.... Aegina is the called the "Pistachio Island"..... enjoy them and send me some!😂👍
Also look up Aegina on TripAdvisor.... loads of information there!
 

Accessible beaches for everyone in Greece.

This is a major project and not going to happen everywhere overnight so to speak but it is a beginning very much needed for Greece!

Best historical destinations in Greece?

So, I love history and I plan to go to Greece this year. I know I will be visiting in Athens and Crete. I will have time for one other place, but with such a distance between Crete and other places, I am not sure what makes sense. Some possibilities:

  • Explore mainland Greece after Athens and before Crete
  • Head to Rhodes after Crete
  • Visit Thessaloniki and the surrounding area after Athens and before Crete
  • Head to Santorini or Mykonos after Crete so I can visit Delos

Small island densely populated located in middle of a calm lagoon in Western Greece connected to the mainland by two 30 meter- long stone arch bridges of the 19th Century!

Is it scary to drive in Greece?

I have heard some horror stories of driving in Greece, but many of these stories took place in cities like Athens. Is this observation true?

The reason why I am asking is because I am going to be visiting Tinos soon and would like to rent a car to explore the island. I heard that this was a fantastic way to get around. Tinos is small, and to me this means the driving might not be bad.

I had a bad driving experience in Italy while in Rome, but once leaving Rome and entering the countryside it was totally fine. I'm hoping Greece is like this, too!
