I highly recommend the boat tours that sail around Milos island especially the tour that stops at Kleftiko for a swim.The crystal blue waters are irresistible and the scenery is majestic.Enjoying a lunch on board surrounded by 50 shades of blue waters.One must not miss the boat tour when visiting Milos Island.It is an unforgettable experience.

This is the most obvious hike you can make on the island of Santorini and it will lead you - if you have not discovered them by now - through the sister villages of Fira, Firostefani and Imerovigli, going higher up all the time above the caldera. It then continues through the expanding housing in northern direction and it finally goes to Oia via a really magnificent path. This hike offers many changing views on the volcano, the sea and the caldera. This hike takes two hours and a half (actual walking time), but the total time can reach 4 or 5 hours. It is ideal to leave Firà at about 10am and in this way you will arrive in Oia already between 1 and 2pm. You can then eat in Oia in one of the many bars. In the afternoon you can descend to the little harbour of Ammoudi in Oia. From the bus square in Fira (when you get to Fira by bus) you have to continue to the very busy square of Theotokopoulou. This is the modern centre of Fira with a lot of travel agencies, banks and bars. In the corner, in between the George's Snack Corner and the Pelican travel agency you go left, in the direction of the caldera. You can then take one of the three streets off the right, they all lead towards the higher part of Fira. Once at the Archaeological Museum higher up (this museum is open till 3pm, but not on Mondays), take a left, past the upper station of the cable car. You then go right above the caldera, until the red-brown building higher up that dominates this neighbourhood of Firostefani: it is the P.M. Nomikos Conference Centre, where a lot of exhibitions take place – on the extending corner in front of this building many people take pictures of the marvellous panoramic view. On the left of the Centre you follow the tiled road and stairs, while you enjoy the view – in front of you you can see the even higher situated village of Imerovigli.
We took the bus from Oia towards Fira and asked the bus driver to let us off in Imerovigli. The nearby tourist office told us where to find the cliff walk trail. It was great to begin in Imerovigli, because then you are walking downhill to Fira. The views are fabulous, and there was a nice cooling breeze. We had good walking shoes and enjoyed seeing Skaros rock in the distance, the Mylos windmill, and the gorgeous blue domed church and 3 bell tower just beyond the Mama Thira Taverna. There are so many picturesque white washed dwellings, wildflowers, and stunning caldera views that it is a photographer's dream. We took the bus from Fira back to Oia. It was a great morning walk!

In April 2017, just before Easter, Mykonos Brewing Company started fermenting its first batches of beer at their new, state of the art brewhouse on the island of Mykonos in Greece. With a combination of Greek malt and Belgian caramel wheat, hard to find hops and with the mythological story of the Giants on their backs, the Mikonu beer was born!
Heard about the brewery from our Villa Concierge (Apollo, great guy) so knew we had to go - we were not disappointed. Lovely brewing team who made us welcome and are clearly very proud of what they do (and rightly so) - excellent beer is being produced. Yoshi was more than happy to show us around although we arrived unexpectedly and he enthusiastically explained their brewing techniques and recipes. The bottled beer is great but we also discovered draft Mykonu Pale Ale at Captain's Bar on the watefront in Mykonus Old Town - a fabulous brew and for a couple of Brits way better than the usual Greek Alpha and Mythos beers Highly recommended - best wishes for growing success of your brewery - Yamas!

A sunny stretch of sand by the sea, littered with nude and semi-nude sunbathers from all over the world.
This is a great beach. The sand is super fine, there is plenty of space available, and it’s surrounded by shops and restaurants

This 11th century BC Dorian settlement includes remains from Hellenistic, Roman, and Byzantine periods.
Ancient Thera is at the top of a mountain and well worth a visit for anyone enjoying archeology . Just a word of warning it is worth the 10euro fare for a mini bus up and down the winding road then to access the site it is a tiring uphill climb to the summit , the stunning views alone are superb and the bus allows two hours visit which is ample time to inspect the remains of the ancient Hellenistic city .

Using finds from various excavations, this museum traces the course of prehistoric Thira from the late Neolithic to the late Cycladic I period.
Visited here while on our last day in santorini a great museum with amazing artefacts and wall paintings a must while on santorini i recommend visiting Akrotiri first to get a sense of the way of life of ancient people and to see the original setting of the wall paintings displayed

Water slides, artificial waves, pools with original games for all ages and for real endless summer fun. Located next door to the Esperos Palace you will find the Faliraki Waterpark which is the largest in Greece and a real summer experience for the entire family. Try all the waterslides and indulge in a frenetic summer party. Climb to the peak of summer bliss with the fun options of Water Park in Faliraki, Rhodes. Alternatively for some relaxing time, select your deckchair in the garden of Water Park and enjoy snacks, refreshments and complete meals in restaurants and coffee shops of the Water Park. The Water Park is located across the street from Esperos Palace in Faliraki, Rhodes and is open daily from 10.00 am.
Visited this with my parter and as a couple in our 30s were unsure if we’d last the day. Arrived at 11am and the next 6 hours seemed to fly by. My partner who isn’t a massive fan of WaterParks went on every ride and loved the day. My biggest recommendation is to either wear socks or water shoes. The park is massive and walking from ride to ride barefoot with the sun bearing down is painful. You could use flip flops but these have to be removed on rides meaning you have to go all the way back to collect them. The best ride was the inflatable in the kids section(there was way more adults than kids on it)

A must do while in Mykonos! Sunset time is the best time to visit Little Venice, preferably latest by 7.30pm to have an hour to watch the full sunset while enjoying a refreshing cocktail at one of the cafes situated on the shore of this location. Best enjoyed in a romantic mood with your loved one, or a flirt, easily found in Mykonos ;))

Topical Cycladic village. Extremely clean and friendly. I highly recommend a visit in the early morning if you are in Páros. Don’t forget to visit the cafe by the big church and meet Konstantinos the owner.. he serves the best lemonade in town. Truly a gem.
