Greek Islands by Variety Cruises

Mostly as a motivational post, now that summer is all around us, I’ve collected some of the most mesmerizing photos of the Aegean islands! Boarding a Variety Cruise that took me from Pireaus to Kusadasi in Turkey and back again, passing from the unique islands of Ios, Santorini, Patmos, Samos, Delos, Mykonos, Tinos and Kea! Get inspired here:

Destination Greece

The small European country that has been making headlines for its defiance to many proposed austerity measures, has actually been put in the spotlight for all the wrong reasons! It’s economy was never strong and, being blatantly honest, Greece doesn’t really produce anything. So, how come they’ve managed so far and expect to overcome even this terrible recession that has lasted over half a decade? One word: Tourism (ok, maybe 3, Tourism and Shipping).

My Santorini by Jono Cusack

Santorini, a beacon of light and hope for Greece in the middle of the Cyclades. The island is typical of paradise with incredible views, spectacular beaches, and supposedly, the occasional beautiful woman. The only thing missing, was everyone else.

Summer in Rethymno Crete

It is claimed that Rethymno is the artistic and intellectual capital of Crete thanks to its rich culture and history.

As well as that, the city is also graced by a long sandy beach that stretches for miles. It’s the ideal choice to have the best of both worlds: the ideal summer holiday and an unforgettable Cretan experience.

Live your most romantic moments; feel Santorini's summer love

A Swedish Proverb says that “a life without love is like a year without summer.” When you think of it, summer could easily be described as the most romantic time of year.

Patmos aromas: it feels like summer

It has only been a few minutes since your arrival on Patmos Island. Already you are impressed by the landscape, the whitewashed streets and houses, historical buildings and unusual ambience. You are on Patmos, where many great historians walked before. You feel proud to visit too. The smell of the sea draws you away, summer is here and your holidays have just begun!

Paros Island in Greece is one of the best choices for vacation in the Cyclades Islands. It is the perfect combination of family oriented, peaceful holidays with a vibrant nightlife to offer a wide variety of experiences.
