Best Beaches in Greece

Greece pairs ancient history with some of Europe’s most striking beaches, from pink sands to shipwreck coves.

The islands each have a signature beach, and a little planning puts you on the right sand without the crowds.

  • Zakynthos for the famous Shipwreck Beach
  • Crete for pink sand at Elafonissi
  • Milos for moon-like white rock coves
  • Mykonos for lively beach clubs

Go in late spring or early autumn and you get the beaches and the history with far fewer people.
