The Mainland
On mainland Greece you can enjoy a typical sun-and-sea holiday, but you can easily add culture, history, nature and city breaks to it!
​
The main airports are Athens, Thessaloniki and Kalamata.
​
Here you will find some of the most popular landscapes in Greece – landscapes with alpine valleys, mountain peaks above the clouds, gorges and canyons, paths through oak, beech and plane tree forests, rivers spanned by arched stone bridges, watermills, waterfalls, national parks with rare flora and fauna, precious wetlands.
​
In the midst of it all, the human element, centuries of Greek civilisation in harmony with the environment: There are rustic villages, ancient ruins that occupy the most dramatic locations, hot springs, isolated monasteries and chapels, castles, towers and abandoned hamlets, cheery mountain towns, and ski centers with beautiful chalets.
​
Did you know that Greece has 24 ski resorts?
There are two large ones close to Athens, and the rest in northern Greece close to Thessaloniki. Just imagine skiing during the day and evenings by the sea with some ouzo and octopus!
​
Those seeking fresh places to explore will be excited with Greece´s hidden gems!
