Cephalonia has great beaches, attractive villages and towns. Luckily, it is big and mountainous enough to absorb the influx of holidaymakers. This is the perfect destination for your family holiday in Greece during June or September.

Other newly emerging destinations are the islands of Ikaria and Patmos in the eastern Aegean. Both are probably a little too quiet for all, though there are some really good beaches on the north coast of Ikaria.

On a family holiday in Greece with teenage children? Try the northeast coast of Corfu. You get the relative quietness while your teenagers can enjoy the night life.

You can also contemplate a family beach vacation in Greece by planning a trip to Mykonos. The only problem is that there are too many beaches which makes choosing the best difficult. On the south side of the island alone are Ornos and Psarou beaches preferred by families, Agrari for idyllic relaxation and Psarou is great for windsurfing, water-skiing and diving.

In Santorini most beaches are covered in black, ash-like sand except for the most famous one, which is red. The main town, Fira, is found at the peak of the island and provides breathtaking views across the land and sheer cliffs that plunge into the azure water.
