Best Greek islands 2017

Naxos is the Best Greek islands 2012.

Home » | About us »


Here are the results of our Swedish site (Kalimera) annual vote on Greece's most popular island. We received votes on 65 islands, that's two more than in 2016. Last year Naxos won, closely followed by Crete and Amorgos.

The 2017 most popular island is Naxos! Congratulations Naxos! Other major changes since 2016 are that Karpathos ranked to the top three for the first time, and that Samos and Amorgos lost some places, and Skiathos and Kefalonia entered the top ten list.
