Discover the Greek Islands
Think of Greece, and images of white-washed houses and sparkling clean
waters will immediately come to mind. The Greek islands are famous
around the world. Greece boasts a coastline of
13,676 km, and the total number of Greek islands
exceeds a whopping
2,500, or 6,000 according to some sources! With around
170 of them being inhabited, chances are you will find your own Greek
paradise when you visit!
The majority of the Greek islands can be reached from Piraeus port in
