🌼 Spring: Wildflowers, Ruins & Easter Magic
See the Acropolis in bloom – Athens is gorgeous in spring, with fewer crowds and fields of wildflowers popping up near ancient ruins.
Hike the Vikos Gorge in the Zagori region – mild temps and alpine meadows make this a dream hike.
Experience Greek Orthodox Easter – it’s the most important holiday of the year. Visit Corfu or Chios for colorful (and slightly wild) traditions.
☀️ Summer: Sun, Sea & Island Adventures
Swim in the Blue Caves of Zakynthos – reach them by boat for the full experience. Party in Mykonos – beaches by day, beach clubs by night. Watch the sunset in Oia – yes, it’s popular. Yes, it’s worth it. 👉 Planning a summer trip? Check out our favorite warm-weather destinations. |
🍇 Fall: Food, Wine & Fewer Tourists
Explore Crete’s countryside – olive harvest begins, and tavernas are full of flavor. Go wine tasting in Nemea – this underrated region in the Peloponnese is full of delicious reds. Wander Delphi or Meteora – ancient sites surrounded by crisp mountain air and fall foliage. Visit Thessaloniki – Greece’s second city has a vibrant arts scene and incredible street food. |
❄️ Winter: Mountains, Myth & Cozy Escapes
Ski in Arachova – Greece has ski resorts! Arachova is the “Mykonos of Winter.” Chill in traditional mountain villages – Metsovo and Karpenisi are charming with snowy rooftops and wood-fired tavernas. Tour Athens’ museums – when it’s chilly out, head indoors to the National Archaeological Museum or Benaki. Celebrate Carnival (Apokries) – in late winter, towns like Patras throw colorful, costume-filled parties before Lent. |
