Greece has unrivaled beaches, beautiful
islands and endless cultural treasures, which
draw people from around the world to
come for a visit. Sometimes overlooked, with
all these riches so readily apparent, is that
Greece is also an excellent destination for
active holidays.
Greece is the birthplace of the Olympics
and mythical heroes. This heritage lives on in
the annual Athens Marathon, the triathlon
on the gorgeous island of Spetses, as well as
countless other organized sports events
around the country. Combine your sightseeing
with testing your strength against
local and international competitors.
The mild climate of Greece combined with
the varied scenery of the country means
that you can golf in the winter one
afternoon and go up to a ski resort the next.
The many rivers offer exciting rafting and
kayaking, and many areas of Greece have
mapped routes for trekking and hiking.
Lastly, there is, of course, the famed, deepblue
sea of Greece, with the opportunity to
sail, kite-surf, and dive. You can nd facilities
for these activities both on secluded islands
and right in the city of Athens, on the Athens
Riviera, stretching from the city all the way to
Cape Sounio.
