When it comes to Greece, who does not think of a deep blue sea, golden beaches and pearly-white cube houses? The ancient Gods didn’t choose Greece as their home for nothing – and visitors can track the traces of antiquity up to the present day. Be it the mighty Acropolis in Athens, the Olympia in the Peloponnesus, or the Palace of Knossos on the island of Crete, everywhere major attractions bring variety to the beach life.
