Go to Greek Islands

Cadogan Guide to the Greek Islands
by Dana Facaros

From the Cadogan Guides series.

Over 3,000 islands lie scattered in the Aegean and Ionian Seas, from barren rocks to mighty Crete, all bathed in a light so clear it can break your heart. To their outrageous beauty, add a big dollop of dream-like myth and Byzantine murk, olive groves and wild thyme, beaches on the most transparent sea you've ever seen, magical nights filled with kefi and swathes of unchained holiday babylon. This guide contains: practical travel advice; over 500 hand-picked places to stay; over 650 restaurants, bars and cafes; 77 maps and site plans; stunning color photography; color touring-map section; the history and myths untangled, the best beaches revealed.

  • unravels the tangled skeins of myth and history
  • best-value, discerning listings: where to stay, eat, swim and shop for all budgets
  • practical, reliable advice: air, road and sea connections for island-hopping without hassle
From the book:
'Even the smells, be they fragrant (lemon blossoms, incense, wild thyme, grilling fish) or stinks (donkey flops, caique diesel engines, plastic melted cheese sandwiches) are pure and unforgettable'
