Greece is a country in Southern Europe with the 11th longest coastline in the world, sharing borders with Albania, Macedonia, Bulgaria and Turkey, and with islands in the Aegean, Ionian and Mediterranean Seas. As one of the world’s most popular tourist destinations, the country’s fabulous beaches, whitewashed homes, historical sites and favorable climate attract huge numbers of visitors to its islands year round, though the majority arrive between April and October. Whether you arrive on the mainland, by sea or by air, the majority of islands can only be reached by ferry. With the number of services on offer, as you may expect, Greek ferries are of a high standard and most ferry companies feature a modern and luxurious fleet. All Greek islands are linked to the mainland, some directly, some indirectly and island-hopping is a great experience, not to be missed. Due to being a gateway to the islands, the Greek mainland is well connected to Italy across the Adriatic Sea too.
The Aegean Islands are located in the Aegean Sea, between the south and east side of mainland Greece and the west side of Turkey. The vast area covered by the Aegean Islands includes the Cyclades, the Dodecanese Islands, the North Aegean Islands, the Saronic Islands, Sporades, Crete and the Ionian Islands and Euboea. The island group includes some of the most popular holiday destinations including Crete, Lemnos, Lesbos, Chios, Samos and Rhodes. The Aegean Islands are often seen as the main characteristic of the Greek culture and tradition. In addition to the obvious appeal of the sun and the sand, visitors are attracted to the traditional villages of whitewashed houses, as well as to the impressive monuments of the great prehistoric civilization that flourished here. Ferries are the primary method of travel around the islands and provide a convenient mode of transport to get you in to and around the region.
