While thousands of holidaymakers will be flocking to Spain and the Balearics in the summer, others will head elsewhere and who can blame them? The more of the world we get to appreciate during our lifetime, the broader our horizons get! One place to definitely visit at some point is Greece, which will give you the chance to enjoy both the sun, sea and sand and as much history, natural beauty, adventure and culture as you can fit in to your hectic itinerary.

Where to go, though? Greece has an abundance of resorts for an activity holiday. Here are some of the best that may help you make your choice.

Lemnos
