What to do During Your Honeymoon in Greece
Honeymooners have many outdoor and indoor activities to choose from, with hitting nightlife venues, exploring the underwater world, and cruising just a few of them.

1. Take a road trip

With every island possessing its own character, cruising to several by yacht is one of the best ways to spend your Greece honeymoon. Admire the traditional white and blue houses of the Cyclades, spend time in solitude in the Sporades islands' secluded coves, and revel in the beaches of the Ionian islands dominated by high mountains and cliffs, such as Milos and Fteri on Kefalonia, Porto Katsiki on Lefkada, and Navagio on Zakynthos.

Near Naxos, there is a Beaufighter aircraft lying on the sandy seabed some 110ft below the surface.
