The Aegean: an alluring sea with a scattering of dreamy islands. There’s the Cyclades, the Sporades, the Dodecanese, Rhodes, Crete, Kythira, Ephesus, Izmir… names that conjure all the best travel clichés: golden beaches, clear waters, sun-baked landscapes. This is a watery region with an intriguing backstory and a rich cultural legacy thanks to the Greek, Turkish, Byzantine, Ottoman and Latin influences that still linger here today. For the ultimate Aegean Sea holidays, swim in its waters, diving down to gaze at fluttering flora, and back on land, discover its cultural riches at dozens of ancient
sites and pretty-as-a-picture mountain villages.
