0:00 - Intro

1:18 - 10. The Saronic Islands
The Saronic Islands are the closest to Athens, so it's easy to get here even if your stay is limited to the capital. The largest island in the archipelago is Salamin, but Aegina, Poros, and Hydra are real travel attractors.

2:30 - 9. Chalkidiki Peninsula
Chalkidiki Peninsula, shaped like a trident, is primarily known for its extremely clean sea and well-maintained beaches. No wonder why, even in Greece, famous for its coasts, Chalkidiki firmly holds the leadership in the number of blue flags for the cleanliness, environmental friendliness, and quality infrastructure of the beaches.

3:53 - 8. Rhodes
Rhodes is one of the most popular Greek islands, and it is not only because of its natural beauty and abundance of resorts and beaches. Settled in Neolithic times, Rhodes was one of the famous centers of an ancient civilization.

5:03 - 7. Mykonos
The island of Mykonos belongs to the Cyclades group and is considered one of the most bohemian islands in the Mediterranean and the Greek Ibiza.

6:16 - 6. Peloponnese
The opening of the Corinth Canal in 1893 added an extra attraction to the Peloponnese, but also separated it from the mainland and turned it into a full-fledged island.

7:24 - 5. Corfu
Corfu, or as the Greeks call it, Kerkyra, is a real gem in the Ionian Sea. First of all, Corfu captivates with its green and rich vegetation, which can't be compared to the Cyclades and Dodecanese islands.

08:45 - 4. Athens
Hardly a dozen cities in the world can boast such an ancient, deep, and distinctive history as Athens. As early as the 5th century B.C., thanks to its powerful navy and advanced political structure, Athens became the most important center of the entire Mediterranean.

09:54 - 3. Kalambaka
The small Greek town of Kalambaka would most likely remain off the main tourist routes if there were not Meteora, one of Greece's most important natural and religious sights.

10:58 - 2. Crete
The largest and most populous of the Greek islands, Crete is a real state within a state, with its own history, culture and traditions.

12:21 - 1. Santorini
Greek islands are amazing in their diversity, but still Santorini has a special place among their incredible abundance. This tiny volcanic island has long ceased to be just a resort, becoming a real hallmark of the whole country.
