Curator’s statement

Greece is a beautiful country that has something for every traveler. Mainland Greece has much to explore, but make sure you visit the stunning islands that Greece has to offer. Visiting in September, the weather is still warm, but you miss the high heat of summer. The water is warm enough to swim, and, maybe best of all, you miss the crowds of tourists.
