Definitevely Rhodes, and Patmos, world heritage cities...The medieval town of Rhodes is unique, and it is an air of Europe, with the italian constructions.In the centre, the administration building(Nomarhia)is an imitation of palazzo ducale of Venice...Try it you ll not regret..Patmos, the second Jerusalem, a wonderful island, with high class tourism

corfu is nice

Corfu. Is on the West coast of Greece and wih easy access to other islands like Paxos and Lefkada.
Beautiful beaches and great scenery all around the island.
Short journey to mainland with constant boat trips almost every hour.

Definitely Corfu. The Municipality of Corfu is located at the center of the eastern side of the island of Corfu. It is the oldest municipality on the island and one of the olders in Greece. It was established on January 6th, 1866, after the Unification of the Seven Islands with Greece, but under the present legal status exists since 1912.

In 1997 the Municipality of Corfu was characterized "Kapodistriac" and under the new conditions its borders were enlarged to include the communities of Alepou, Evropouli and Kanalia. The Municipality of Corfu includes the urban sectors of: Analipsis, Kanoni, Figareto, Stratia, Gouvia, Kontokali, Kyra Chrisikou, Potamos, Temploni and also the islands of Vido and Lazareto.

The Municipality of Corfu is the largest Municipality on the island with about 40,000 inhabitants. It is the administrative, financial and commercial center of the island. In its boundaries are located the main facilities and services like the port, airport, shopping centers, museums, churches (orthodox and catholic), etc, including the great attraction of the "Old Town". It is located between two fortresses, this been the reason that the City of Corfu is the only city in Greece that has been characterized as "KASTROPOLIS".

It depends on what you wish to do on you vacation. Greek islands can offer a great variety of scenery and services.

All Greek islands are beautiful. However, this choice depends on what exactly you want from these holidays. Wild night life? Romantic atmosphere? Classical Greek island?
I would recommend Mykonos, Santorini and Crete or Rhodes, respectively.

I found Zante, also known as Zykinthos, fab. Lovely area we stayed in called Laugna.
They have nice warm sea and we hired a little boat for a couple of hours to visit turtle island and do some turtle spotting!
Also went to Kardamena in Kos which was great too.
Hired a car and went all over the island and found little deserted areas of beach.

Hi I have been to Zante, Kos, Crete and Corfu, and my favourite is Crete, with Corfu a close second.

We're moving into our fabulous villa, with swimming pool and sea and mountain views, at Coral Bay, Paphos, on the beautiful Island On Cyprus, in a few weeks time. I've also owned a large boat in Corfu (Gouvia Marina), in the past and visited all the islands in the Ionian sea, as well as Athens, through the Corinthian Canal. All the Greek Islands are beautiful. We chose Cyprus to live on, because, in reality, it's essential facilities are very advanced, in line with UK and the US, as well as having the true Med feel about it. (Can't wait!!)

Rhodes, definitely Rhodes! I went there last summer and I've fallen in love with the island. I definitely want to visit there again, it was absolutely beautiful! If you want any more information, like where I stayed, what I done or pictures just askkk =]]

Try Crete

so much history - Spinalonga (old leper colony) Knossos Castle, The samara Gorge, the bottomless lake

You'll love it and you will never forget Spinalonga - look it up online - facinating

Milos...The best island, it is romantic for the couples, it has great nightlife for friends and companies, really beautiful and Clean beaches and isn't really expensive...The best sunset I've ever seen in my life...

I've not really been to a bad one yet, they are all good with friendly locals.
See what this lot had to say.

Santorini and Mykonos are nice, but expensive. There are too many tourists there, too.

You can go to Naxos on the cheap, go to the beaches and explore the town.

It depends on how long you have....maybe do more than one island......

I think Crete is the best place for your summer holidays. I t has sandy beaches with crystal blue waters, but also enormous, intimidating mountains. Crete's unique landscapes satisfy the demands of even the most demanding traveller. There are also many archeological sights ( Knossos, Faistos etc), and many museums .Crete is an island that all kind oftourism can be performed... sea tourism, agrotourism, family tourism, mountain tourism etc....

Visit Crete, it's a place you will never forget, once you come you will always want to return!

Not an island - the mainland .... Preveza - fly to Lefkada/Preveza airport and stay in Preveze - 25 km of beach - beautiful! www.preveza.gr

I have no idea about places in Greece. But I can tell you Argentina is a great destination for holidays. There you'll find all the fun anyone could look for. Specially in Capital Federal, in Buenos Aires, that is full of hotels, restaurants and touristic places.
Bye!
