British newspaper Evening Standard compiled a list of twenty Greek islands as the most beautiful.

“Crystal clear waters, sun, souvlaki, and a different side of Greece without overcrowding” promises travel editor Laura Hampson, choosing 20 of the 227 inhabited islands of the country.

Naxos occupies the top of the list with its paradise beaches and special historical monuments. Next is Serifos with its white villages, sunny Patmos for an unforgettable Easter, the refreshing Amorgos, and the picturesque Astypalea with its historic settlements. Next is the family-friendly Corfu, the beautiful Symi, and the imposing Santorini.

The list goes on with the bright and impressive Crete, the gastronomic Sifnos, the cosmopolitan Mykonos, the youthful Ios of the paths and monasteries, the timeless Paros, Zakynthos with the famous Shipwreck, the unforgettable Kefalonia, and the exotic Milos and idyllic Lefkada. Finally, the list features Skopelos as the island of Mamma Mia, Skiathos with its nightlife, and Andros which is distinguished for its arts and unique beaches.
