As the ship approaches the port in Milos, you will be faced with a quite spectacular view. Its strange horseshoe shape, emerging out of the blue waters of the Aegean combined with the great Greek sun, creates a majestic and glorious spectacle. You will be filled with the desire to embrace it... what we can guarantee is that you will love it! Milos is one of the most seductive and hospitable of the Cyclades islands. It is 86 nautical miles from the Pireaus port and it has an area of 151 sq. km.

Naxos was one of the major centres of the Cycladic culture. Around 3000BC, the main settlements appear to have been near Hora, on the hill of Kastro and at Grotta. The island was later colonised by a party from Karia, led by a son of Apollo named Naxos. Naxos was one of the first islands to work in marble and in the Archaic period produced the lions of Delos and Kouroi statues of increadible size. Indeed, for a period, huge was beautiful on Naxos; in 523BC the tyrant Lygdamis declared he would make Naxos' buildings the highest and most glorious in all Greece, although only the massive lintel from the gate of the Temple of Apollo remains on the islet of Palatia (in Naxos Town).

Travel writers seem to agree that Kythnos is the least interesting of all the Cyclades islands. It extremely barren with little to relieve the eye. This means that few foreigners travel there and it is a place where you can relax away from the crowds, even in the height of summer. Excavations have found a site dating back to the Early Neolithic or even the Mesolithic period, making it the oldest habitation yet found in the Cyclades. Much later the Ionians arrived on the island and founded the ancient city of Kythnos.

Greece holidays have never been easier. Travel to the country is both easy and inexpensive these days, with a variety of options to suit any budget - ranging from services operated by flag carriers like British Airways to the plethora of cheap flights available from the numerous low-cost airlines serving the mainland and the islands.

When many people are asked what country encapsulates sunshine breaks, Greece is the obvious answer. This ancient land, steeped in myth and legend with its supporting collection of beautiful islands, seems to have it all - gorgeous beaches, spectacular nature, warm, sunny weather, a heritage bursting with history and culture, plus delicious food and drink. Greece holidays can offer all of this.

In fact, so great is the variety, that when people tell you that they are booking one of the many Greece holidays, there is much more to explain. The visitor could be spending their break in Athens, absorbing that ancient city's incredible wealth of historical monuments, capped of course by the amazing site of the Acropolis and the ruins of the Parthenon on the hill.

If you are thinking of having the best sailing vacation in Greece, try the Cyclades group of islands. Its location extends southeast from the island of Attica to the shoreline of Asia Minor. The place has a mild weather and is mostly mountainous. Its major products include tobacco, wheat, and wine. Cyclades is renowned in the country for its Bronze Age and Neolithic sculptures. In particular, the island's sculpted female idols made from Cyclades' white marbles have been an important contribution to Greece's ancient artworks.
