Photos to Inspire Your Greek Island Trip

Imagery of the Greek Islands is so iconic, that anyone who’s been can spot a Greek Island photo almost instantly: it’s that recognizable.  From the blue & white architecture, to soaring island views, colorful doorways, domed churches, & deep blue waters: the islands provide one gorgeous photo opp after another.  I’ve visited Greece twice, traveling to the islands both times, & would happily visit again ~ or move there!  Here’s a carefully curated collection of photos to inspire your Greek Island trip…with thanks to my brother, John, for many of the best ones.

Two destinations that are possible to pair with a Greece trip are exotic Turkey ~ which my friend Lea & I visited after a dance-party in Mykonos….or Italy, which is an easy flight from Athens.
