Apeiranthos is the most distinctive village on Naxos - marble streets, Venetian towers, five museums and the best mountain taverna on the island. Here's our complete guide.

At 1,003 metres, Mt Zas is the highest peak in the Cyclades and the mountain where Zeus was supposedly raised. We hiked it for sunset on a local's recommendation and it became one of the best things we did in a month on Naxos. Here's everything you need to know: both routes, the Zas Cave, what to pack and when to go.

Santorini is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, which means the pressure is on to do it right the first time. We spent five days here, watched sunset from Pyrgos instead of Oia, based ourselves in Imerovigli instead of Fira and found the best meal of our two-month Greek islands trip in a village most visitors never find. Here's everything worth doing, and what to skip.

The hike from Fira to Oia is 10.5 kilometres along the caldera rim, past whitewashed villages, blue-domed churches, and volcanic rock, with the Aegean Sea visible below the entire way. Free, open year-round, and one of the best experiences on the island. Here's everything you need to know before you go.

Where you stay in Santorini matters. Choose well, and you’ll wake to caldera views, slow breakfasts on sunlit terraces and evenings that drift from golden hour to candlelit dinners. Choose wrong, and you may find yourself far from the version of the island you came for. Here’s our guide to the best areas and hotels in Santorini.

Paros has some of the most beautiful places to stay in the Cyclades, from sleek design hotels, hilltop villas, and even a restored 19th-century windmill you can actually sleep in. This is our guide to the best hotels, villas and hostels on the island, across every budget and area.

Naxos Chora is the Cycladic capital that most visitors pass through on their way to the beaches, and that's exactly why it's worth slowing down for. After countless visits to town, here's everything worth seeing, eating and doing in Chora, from sunrise at the Portara to sunset cocktails above the harbour.

We visited Megalochori while exploring Santorini beyond Oia and Fira, and found one of the island’s most rewarding villages: quiet laneways, cave houses, blue-domed churches, family-run wineries, and a square that still feels lived in. Here’s our guide to the best things to do in Megalochori, including where to eat and what’s actually worth your time.

Tucked into the red cliffs below Oia, Ammoudi Bay is the version of Santorini most visitors miss. Rustic waterfront tavernas, a hidden swimming spot past the last restaurant and sunset views without the crowds. Here's everything worth knowing before you visit.

Agios Prokopios is the most popular beach on Naxos, and it earns its reputation. Wide golden sand, turquoise water, a string of beach bars at the northern end and a quieter public stretch to the west. Here's everything you need to know before you go.

Naoussa is the most beautiful town on Paros, and the best base on the island for most visitors. But it's not for everyone, and it's not cheap. This is our honest guide to the best hotels in Naoussa across every budget.
