3Ikaria: the best greek island to discover the wildlife

Most of the islands in lists of the best Greek island destinations have one thing in common – the beach resorts. However, not all travellers are interested in spending every day of the holiday lying on the sands. There are great opportunities for that on the other islands in this list.

On Ikaria, travellers get the chance to explore and see a different type of landscape. This island has a range of habitats from mountains and forests to lakes and farmlands. This is ideal for those that want to get back to nature and search for some of Greece’s wildlife.
