What is the best season to travel to Greece ?
This will depend on in which you want to go. The very best months to visit the islands are May, June, early July, late August, September and early October. Avoid the dates July 20th to August 20th what are busiest from the tourist season, and late October because the weather gradually deteriorates.
If you wish to go to 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 screen lotion, sun block and much 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. Should be cotton. A lot of women travelers wear sun skirts, but this may get you stared at. 5. some "evening" clothes which include pants along with a nice shirt. Your image is important. You also wish to wear pants should you go into a significant church. 6. Good walking shoes. Acropolis tended to be on high peaks (surprise surprise) plus they generally have a lot of rocks.
Most of the island villages have cobble stone streets.
7. Each day bag that you can have a 1.5 L bottle water in, your guide books, sun screen and towel in.
8. A decent camera that you can hide in your pocket or bag.
I leave my expensive one at home. 9. 200 or speed film. All-purpose much of your pictures will be outside. Can even manage with 100. 10. A guide book. 11. Toothbrush, razor, etc.
