Discover the Greek islands with First Choice

By Kate Naylor on March 17th, 2011 at 10:17am in Travel

There you are, tapping away on your keyboard. Doing the washing up. In a meeting. Watching telly. Whatever. Just doing ordinary everyday stuff. But you’re smiling. And you can’t stop. How come? Because you’ve just booked a summer holiday in the Greek Islands.

Let’s paint a word picture.

It’s hot. Very hot. But it’s dry heat so you don’t get sticky. The sea’s blue. Incredibly blue. You’re lying on the beach thinking to yourself, “I’m actually inside a picture postcard!”

You have to shade your eyes with your hand to look at the horizon even though you’re wearing shades. It’s so bright and clear. You can see tiny, jewel-like islands and islets dotted in the azure sea. The beach smells of suntan oil, ozone and sunshine. The bare, dry hills are dotted with immaculate white cube shaped houses and tiny domed churches.

Later, a cool drink at your elbow, you’re relaxing outside a traditional Greek Taverna, waiting for your food to arrive. This is Greece so the people are genuinely lovely and you’ve had a warm welcome.

Tomorrow you’re getting aboard a party boat to visit neighbouring islands. But you might treat yourself to an adventure and hike out to the ruins you can see in the distant hills instead. Or just lie on the beach… it’s so mellow here. Or head for a cool museum and take in some raw history.

If that’s got your holiday juices flowing, you can’t do better than hop over to First Choice and book the Greek island holiday of a lifetime. We always feature generous First Choice discount codes. The economy’s very rocky still and it’s wise to choose a big holiday firm you can trust. Then… you can carry on dreaming!
