Rhodes family holidays
With sunshine for some 300 days of the year, a trip to Rhodes makes for a great family holiday. Choose from sandy and pebbled beaches, with protected bays and calm, shallow waters for little paddlers. You’ll also find plenty of water parks, go-karting and crazy golf spots for adrenaline-seekers.
Rhodes will appeal to slightly older groups, too. Culture vultures can visit the ancient city of Ialyssos and the UNESCO-listed medieval old town of Rhodes. Hiking trails snake along the 250-kilometre coastline, which is dotted with olive groves, lemon farms, and ancient monasteries.
Rhodes has been one of the biggest regional wine producers for 2500 years, and adults can enjoy touring Rhodes’ many vineyards. Follow your busy day by sampling the island’s cuisine. Look out for dishes like pitaroudia (fried chickpea balls), stews made with wild greens and herbs, and spetzofai (baked sausages with peppers and onions).

Crete family holidays

For lazy beach days, Crete spoils you for choice. The calm, clear waters of Agia Pelagia promise plentiful snorkelling opportunities. Rest and relaxation is the order of the day on the pebble beach at Kolymbari, and you’ll find aquariums and theme parks for the kids to enjoy around Gouves.
Culture-seeking families can head to Heraklion. Teach the kids the legend of the minotaur with a trip to the nearby Palace of Knossos, followed by a visit to the city’s Archaeological Museum.
