If you’re planning a solo trip, you want to know that each of your destinations will be safe, relaxing, and accessible from wherever it is you’re arriving from. For these reasons, a solo trip around the Greek islands can work really well, as these destinations are incredibly safe, easy to navigate, and charming. Check out three of the islands you must see on your solo adventure.
Crete
Crete is one of the larger islands, and therefore has loads to offer. You could easily fill a week-long stay and still have plenty to see, so it may be worth planning to stay a while here. Enjoy the stunning coastline, marvel at ancient ruins, and take in the charming towns which offer delicious (and relatively cheap) local food.
Santorini
Perhaps the archetypal Greek island, Santorini is so well visited that you’re sure to find a ferry to the island that suits you and your schedule. Stay in a hostel or give yourself the luxury of your own hotel room, to really take in all that Santorini has to offer.
Rhodes
Another of the larger Greek islands, Rhodes has its own airport so you can fly in and out of the island, onto your next destination. Expect to find beautiful sun-kissed olive groves, sandy beaches, and bustling market towns with plenty to buy as gifts for people back home.
Whether you’re a seasoned solo traveller, or it’s your first trip, travelling around the Greek islands is a great way to get into the spirit of your solo adventure.
