Almost round-the-clock daylight, waterfalls and highland roads that open during the summer. Perfect for a road trip.

Midnight sun from late May to mid-July. Dramatic peaks, fishing villages and hiking all night if you like.

Warm and good for swimming, with fewer tourists than in July and August. Naxos and Paros are great for island hopping.
