What is the best season to go to Greece ?
It depends on in which you wish to go. The best months to visit the islands are May, June, early July, late August, September and early October. Steer clear of the dates July 20th to August 20th which are the busiest of the tourist season, and late October because the weather gradually deteriorates.
If you wish to visit the Greek mainland, then March, April, May, June, September and October are suitable months. July and August are both very warm and busy.
What should I bring. ?
1. Sun block, sun screen lotion and more sun screen lotion. (I am inclined to bring one bottle and purchase another there.) 2. A hat that covers the face. 3. A good pair of sunglasses that block U.V. rays. 4. 2 teams of "day clothes" which are cool and comfortable. Could be shorts (nice) and a decent t-shirt. Ought to be cotton. Many women travelers wear sun skirts, but this might get you stared at. 5. some "evening" clothes which include pants along with a nice shirt. How you look is essential. You also want to wear pants should you get into a major church. 6. Good walking shoes. Acropolis were rather on high peaks (surprise surprise) plus they generally have lots of rocks.
Most of the island villages have cobble stone streets.
7. Each day bag that you could have a 1.5 L bottle water in, your best guide books, sun screen and towel in.
8. A good camera that you could hide in your wallet or bag.
I leave my expensive one at home. 9. 200 or speed film. All purpose most of your pictures will be outside. Can even get by with 100. 10. A guide book. 11. Toothbrush, razor, etc.
