How about a trip to Greece Aegean Islands
A Brief Summary
The east of Greece is essentially the core of the Aegean islands, from Lesvos (Lesbos), down to the Cyclade islands of Paros and cross to the eastern Aegean island of Kos. The one thing these islands all have in common, other than being situated in the deep blue waters of the Aegean Sea, is that they are all hilly and rugged, regardless of their size, so those with significant walking difficulties may find these islands less than favourable. For those without such difficulties, each island is a little different to the others, and, on the whole the larger the island, the more infrastructure and more options you will have in terms of accommodation, sightseeing and exploring. Some of the smaller islands are quite tricky to get to and will need you to fly into other larger islands and catch a boat across, but these are where you’ll find the real Aegean, the real Greek Island way of life and some fantastically authentic hospitality.. albeit not always with a great deal of English being spoken. The larger islands are easy to get to and have plenty to do, but wherever you go, the sunsets are wonderful, the locals friendly, and the food fantastic!

Hot, dry, sunny summers are the norm across the islands of the Aegean, with temperatures above 30°c common from mid-Jun to early Sep. Rainfall in these months is rare. Autumns are mostly dry and sunny, although after mid-Oct heavy showers and storms can develop, but skies remain bright and temperatures average 22°c in Oct and 19°c in Nov. Winters are mild, but quite wet and storms pass through once or twice a month with strong winds. Spring is bright and increasingly dry and warm as you head into summer, although seldom very hot due to the strong breezes that develop and continue through the summer months.
