Kythira Greece sits on its own, about halfway between the Peloponnese and Crete and for an island this good it stays surprisingly quiet. 🌞 Original moment belongs to Madi Sexton (TikTok) #discovergreece #kythiragreece #surprisingislands

You can't be in Greece right now and overlook the "premium" side of it. @aefestivalgr 🤞 Original moment belongs to aefestival.gr (TikTok) #discovergreece #athensepidaurusfestival #greekfestivals

There's always one Greek paniyiri you spend the whole winter waiting for. 😊 Ours live rent-free in our heads till summer. the music, the food that keeps coming, the dancing that stops whenever it decides to stop. Which one's yours? It has a name and a place! 📍 Koufonisia Original paniyiri moment belongs to orestis_bour (IG) #discovergreece #greekpanigiri #greekfestivals

Did you know there's a slow little ferry out of Amorgos that quietly does the whole job for you. 🌞 It loops the Small Cyclades, the islands sitting just east of Naxos. Koufonisia, Schinoussa, Iraklia, Donousa and Amorgos right at the end of the line. You don't drop Paros for this. You just don't stop at Naxos. 😉 Original moment of Paros belong to navigateourlives (IG) and of Amorgos to panpapaioannou (IG) #discovergreece #cycladesislandhopping

This isn't an anti-summer post for Rhodes. It's a there's-more-than-summer post. 👌🏼 Rhodes in summer is the obvious choice, but the island beyond the famous season is something you always knew existed; you just never picked that time of year. Rhodes beyond summer, in 60 seconds. Enjoy! #discovergreece #rhodes

We've been telling you for ages, summer here comes with a dancing mood attached. 🌙 📍 Panigiri Flabouriani, Kythnos Original moment by katerina.tsoutsani (TikTok) #discovergreece #kythnosisland #greekdancing

This is Greek summer too, just above sea level! Moment by vasia0902 (TikTok) 📌 Voidomatis River

Paxos is where they filmed Maestro. Three seasons of it. People watched, fell for the place and never clocked that the Ionian had a quieter, greener, more grown-up side sitting right under Corfu. 💛 #discovergreece #smallgreekislands #paxosisland Vid: androniki.vretto (TikTok)

How much do you need this right now? 🌞 #discovergreece #ithaki Original moment by panpapaioannou (IG)

Meet the Parthenon's older sister! 🏛 She's 50 years older. Same family. Doric and proud. But she sits on a pine-covered hill on Aegina, one of the closest islands to Athens, 40 minutes by fast ferry from Piraeus. #discovergreece #apheatemple #aeginaisland Original moment by gavriilux (IG)

Bet someone you know has a friend that is obsessed with @gr_visitlesvos! 💛 We also have a friend who’s been to Lesvos 6 times in a row and we can’t BUT check her updated list for those visiting the island for the first time. #visitlesvosgr #discovergreece #greekislands

🎧 Episode 06 of Sounds of Kavala and Thassos is out, a new podcast series by Discover Greece! Three people. One city they all chose on purpose. Kavala isn't a place you pass through anymore, it's a place people are quietly deciding to build something in. A silk gallery where contemporary design meets Greek folklore, run by someone who saw room here that bigger cities couldn't offer. A ceramics studio where the work isn't the bowl, it's the calm of the hands learning clay. And the Philippi Festival, the second oldest festival in Greece after Epidaurus, running every summer since 1957, now with a director rethinking what a 60-year-old institution can be. None of this happened in Athens or Thessaloniki. It happened in a small northeastern city most people only know as the ferry port to Thassos. Listen before your next trip north. It changes how you see a city you might have only driven through. 🎧 Listen on Spotify: open.spotify.com/episode/6Cf… #discovergreece #podcastseries #kavala

Half-moon shaped and extremely exotic, Voulisma beach feels like someoned transfused Carribean style waters on this side of Crete. It's 11/10! 💙 😉 Wow someone! #discovergreece #officiallysummer #crete Original moment: heycrete (IG)

This blue hue is so special, you only find it on this island...💙 There's an island in the Cyclades nobody lives on. Not because it's hard to love. Because it's that protected. 📍 Polyaigos is the largest uninhabited island in the Aegean Original moment: donotdisturbvaca (IG) #discovergreece #greeksummer #boattrip

Everyone knows Thassos for the water. 🌊 Almost nobody walks up into it. Above the beaches, the island turns into forest, and the climb through it toward Ypsarion is the part most visitors never see. 🌳 👉 Some people see a place. Some people walk it. Send this to the second kind. #discovergreece #worldsaunteringday #thassosisland

Sea turtles in Greece have a habit that's hard to believe. 🐢 Every summer, the same females return to the exact beach they were born on to nest. Caretta caretta. The Mediterranean's loggerhead. 👉 Share this with whoever's planning Greece this summer. #discovergreece #zakynthos Original moment: mrsbeachmountain (TikTok)

Nothing compares to the first swim you take after dropping your bags at the hotel, just to tell yourself you're finally on vacation 🫠 #discovergreece #peloponnese #mani 🫆 Original moment belongs to xristos.x.paravalos (IG)

🎧 Episode 05 of our Podcast "Sounds of Kavala and Thassos" is out. Two jars. Throuba olive oil and pine honey, both made by families on the same northern Aegean island, the same way, for generations. Listen, it might change the way you look at the jars in your own pantry. 👉 open.spotify.com/episode/0nd… #visit_thassos #discovergreece #podcastseries #oliveoilthassos #thassoshoney

Nothing on levoyageofficiel (ΙG) mind. On purpose! 💭 This is the part everyone's actually waiting for. Not the photos, not the itinerary. Just the moment your head goes quiet and stays that way.
