You can usually find multiple associations and companies, offering organized tours and cruises, so choose the one that suits your taste and style and off you go! Discover the Ionian islands and the mainland of Greece, swim in the unspoiled paradise beaches with the crystal clear waters, and feel enchanted by the impressive rocky coastlines and blue caves.
