Greek paradises
With more than 3,000 years of history, an unparalleled archaeological heritage and stunning landscapes, mainland Greece and its more than 1,000 islands boast some of the most heavenly beaches in the Mediterranean. We recommend some of the finest in Athens, Corfu, Crete, Mykonos or Santorini – destinations that you can reach with Iberia from 21,500 Avios return.

Visitors to the stunning double beach on Corfu’s west coast can reach it on foot from the village of Afionas or by sea. Flanked by an extraordinary natural setting, it offers transparent waters that are perfect for swimming.
One of Mykonos’ wildest beaches, with caves and rock formations, Agios Sostis is a favourite among locals. Thanks to its calm and shallow waters, it is an ideal destination for families.
Perissa beach stretches eight kilometres along the south of the island. Its black sand – a product of Santorini’s volcanic origin – and its winds (ideal for windsurfing) make it one of the most striking attractions for adventurers.
Located about 20km south of Athens, Vouliagmeni is the perfect destination for those seeking relaxation in nature. This enclave boasts white sand and lush vegetation, as well as an impressive thermal lake.
Situated in the northwest of the island, Agios Georgios is an incredible bay and one of the quietest beaches in Corfu. Its terrain also makes it an ideal destination for windsurfing.
Paraga is one of the most beautiful beaches in Mykonos. It boasts stunning turquoise waters, which are renowned for their warmth. There are also plenty of places to eat and drink, whether you want to enjoy a meal during the day or a cocktail at sunset.
Vlychada is a hidden gem boasting a stunning lunar landscape and otherworldly rock formations right on the seashore. Although it is far from the capital, it is well worth the trip to enjoy this uncrowded area.
