Any gay travel to Greece is sure to include splendid beaches, breathtaking sunsets, exploring ancient ruins and cruises or ferry rides between several of Greece’s famous islands. But whether you are looking for a family vacation picking olives, exploring museums and visiting historical landmarks, a couple’s romantic seaside getaway or a lively adventure with a group of friends, travel to Greece is sure to leave you with memories you will cherish for a lifetime.
Athens has several bars and clubs, as well as coffee shops and cafés that are LGBT-owned or LGBT-friendly. And, of course, there are saunas for men interested in the bathhouse scene during their vacation to Greece. Athens Relax is right across the street from a club and is a large sauna with mixed-age clientele, while Hera is a smaller sauna with more mature patrons. Limanakia beach, just south of Athens is a popular beach area for men that offers a rocky shore, underwater rock formations and swimming.
The Greek Island of Mykonos is well-known as a welcoming location for vacations and a hotspot for LGBT travel. With pristine beaches, breathtaking scenery, a lively nightlife, friendly locals and a cosmopolitan feel, this island is an ideal stop on any gay vacations to Greece. There are plenty of LGBT-friendly lodgings on Myknonos, including a LGBT-owned, adults only hotel catering exclusively to travelers. Another great choice when choosing which Greek islands to visit during your travel is Crete. While Crete does not exactly have a scene, this island that is popular with all types of travelers does have a LGBT-owned bed and breakfast, a handful of LGBT bars and establishments, beaches and a generally welcoming atmosphere, making this another great stop on a vacation to Greece.
Of course, lesbian travelers will not want to miss Lesvos and the opportunity to explore Sappho’s native hometown, Eressos. Lesbian travelers can stroll along beautiful beaches, experience luxurious spa treatments, people watch from romantic cafes and indulge in a delightfully women-centered nightlife while visiting this haven for lesbian travel.
While Greece is largely a traditional, religious country as a whole, those on vacations will find a warm, welcoming atmosphere in most areas. To ensure that your vacation to Greece is the most fulfilling and relaxing break possible, consider visiting Greece as part of an organized travel tour, or work with a travel agency with experience planning gay travel to Greece.
