The Greek islands are an all-year-round vacation destination; however, September and October are the ideal months to visit as the weather remains pleasant and warm and the islands become less crowded. In fact, summers on the Greek islands always tend to get overcrowded with tourists from all over the world. As the summer season begins to come to an end, and schools are back in order, the tourist population dies down.
Whether you want to relax by the gorgeous waters of the Mediterranean Sea or learn about historical, cultural monuments and cuisines, we’ve compiled a list of the greatest islands to visit in Greece during Autumn.
Kos is an exemplary island. As it is smaller, it tends to be less crowded and less popular with tourists than some of the larger islands. Exploring archeological sites, fishing harbors, and experiencing the most incredible parties is ideal during the months of September and October.
Perfect for any cultural fanatics, Crete offers a diverse range of artistic and ethnic experiences, outdoor activities, as well as stunning beaches. As it’s the largest island, Crete is the ideal place to catch some rays during Autumn.
Similarly, discovering Rhodes’ many magnificent cultural sites through balmy walks is ideal during autumn as the delightful winds make the strolls bearable without having to worry about tourists getting in your way.
The month of September is ideal for a trip to Karpathos. Meet the generous and kind locals and discover the islands’ rich culture and heritage, as well as its natural landscapes.
Since Karpathos is famous for its stunning sand beaches, you can swim in the crystal-clear sea at warm temperatures.
