The travel editor of global news network CNBC expressed excitement about the possibilities of the less popular island destinations of Greece, such as Lipsoi and Iraklia
In the list of the most interesting proposals to visit safely this year, the first place is occupied by Normandy, Greece is in second place with its “other islands”, followed by central Vietnam, Kagawa in Japan, Dandenogs in Australia, New Mexico, USA, and the Caribbean islands of Samba and Agios Efstratios.
In her laudatory report on the Greek islands, the journalist begins with a flashback to the impressive course of Greece, which tripled its tourism traffic in less than twenty years. With five regions of Greece, Crete, South Aegean, Attica, Central Macedonia and Ionia accounting for 88% of tourist arrivals, Greece has many well-established tourist names of international reach. However, then the author of the article, after researching Municipalities and institutions, focuses on the alternative destinations of Greece and praises the uniqueness of Lipsoi from the Dodecanese and Iraklia in the Cyclades that remain authentic, maintain their exoticism and offering holidays away from the crowd.
Mayor “Through the crises, new opportunities are born with Lipsoi being a shining example. The natural charm of the island of Calypso in combination with the vaccinations and the excellent record without cases throughout this period, continues to be a source of inspiration for international media,” says Lipsoi Fotis Maggos.
“The Small Cyclades are one of the strong cards of Greece for refreshing holidays in a magical natural environment without mass tourism. The sandy beaches of Iraklia and the legend of the Cyclops Polyphemus who “lurked” in its impressive caves, create a special and safe vacation proposal”, comments the Deputy Mayor of Naxos and Small Cyclades Vangelis Katsaras.
