There are so many reasons to visit Greece! The one thing that everybody will enjoy is the 30,000 km of beaches. Another motive can be the great number of archaeological sites and museums. Others, more practical, love the cuisine of the country. Whatever your reason may be, you will never regret traveling there.
But now that you have decided to make the journey, you have to find out how you will make the dream come true.
And maybe you need some advice on when to go. Greece has all four seasons and each of them has its grace. But the winter visitor, although he/she may end up skiing, will miss the summer time glory of the sea and beaches. Early Fall is also a good season byt in Spring ,unless you love mountain climbing, the weather is still not hot enough for swimming.
Now that you have packed up your swimming suits, you may wonder where you should go. Well, the answer to that question is very difficult because it's hard to find a place that is not worth seeing. Nevertheless, I will try and give some suggestions. Thousands of tourists visit the Greek islands every year. There must be a good reason for that. In most of them you can enjoy the sea, the sun and the history of the country. Santorini, Crete, Rhodes, Mykonos, Patmos, Thassos, and so many others can give you a combination of sea, culture, and night life.
On the other hand, how can you go so far away and not see Parthenon, Delphi, Delos, and all those famous ancient places that are spread all over Greece? That's a tough choice that you have to make. But it's granted that whatever your choice may be, you will have a great time.
