Why travel to Greece in October?

Away from the summer tourist crowds, October is an ideal time to discover a different side of Greece. The weather remains mild, perfect for hiking without suffering from the heat, and the beaches are much quieter. The Greek islands, from the Cyclades to the Dodecanese, offer glorious autumn light, ideal for photography enthusiasts and lovers of wide-open spaces. To learn more about the island of Kythira, discover Annick’s account.

Where history meets Mediterranean landscapes

In October, ancient sites such as the Acropolis in Athens or the ruins of Rhodes can be explored in a peaceful atmosphere, without the summer crowds. You can also make the most of the traditional villages, where the rhythm of life returns to its authentic pace. Whether by the sea, on the island trails or in the picturesque lanes of historic towns, a trip to Greece at this time of year promises a truly immersive experience.

A wide choice of activities and tours

Whether you enjoy hiking, cultural discoveries or simply relaxing, Greece in October offers a variety of activities to suit everyone. Choose a tour through the Cyclades, an exploration of the rugged terrain of #Crete or a cycling getaway along the shores of the Aegean Sea. For a holiday with your family or a small group, autumn in Greece lets you combine comfort and adventure with peace of mind.

—  These are some really beautiful hikes, but June 10–19 is a little too late in the season because of the heat. For most of the hikes, it’s impossible to set out early due to bus schedules and breakfast times at the hotels.
