The islands are the main characteristic of Greece’s morphology and an integral part of the country’s culture and tradition. Greek sovereign land includes 6,000 islands and islets scattered in the Aegean and Ionian Seas, of which only 227 islands are inhabited. This is a truly unique phenomenon for the European continent.
The Greek Archipelago takes up 7,500 km of the country’s total 16,000 km coastline, offering a highly diversified landscape: beaches stretching over many kilometers, sheltered bays and coves, sandy beaches with sand-dunes, pebble beaches, coastal caves with steep rocks and dark colored sand typical of volcanic soil and coastal wetlands.
Many of these Greek beaches have been awarded the blue flag under the Blue Flags of Europe Program, providing not only swimming, but also scuba diving, snorkeling, water skiing, sailing and windsurfing.
The ideal climate, safe waters and small distances between ports and coasts, have made the Greek islands extremely popular among Greek and foreign visitors.
Cassandra from Entire Travel arranged a perfect holiday for us at Le Moana in Bora Bora. The flights and transfers worked seamlessly, our overwater bungalow was perfectly positioned and staying on Matira Point was like being in paradise! I was so happy with how well the trip was put together for us.

Tina and the team have now planned 5 holidays for my wife and I, and each trip just seems to get better. No matter what staff member we work with or country we travel to the team are highly knowledgeable, responsive and friendly. We cannot rate the team high enough. We recommend them to all of our friends. Thank you Tina and the team!
We recently had a great family of 6 adventure to the West coast of Canada. Thankyou to Sam from the Entire Travel team who took all the planning hassles away from us. Everything was planned to perfection and ran to clockwork. Using the Trip Plan App made things so much easier for us with all booking info at our fingertips. It’s an adventure we will talk about for years to come.
Some of the Greek islands close down completely in low season during the winter months. Other islands get super busy at certain times of year, particularly in August.
