Book Greek Islands - ASSOULINE

An endless expanse of shimmering waters, coupled with the incomparable Greek hospitality, awaits visitors to the islands of the Aegean. Each island is home to a unique spirit and mythology. From Patmos (a favorite of Aga Khan) to Hydra (which captivated Henry Miller, Leonard Cohen and Sophia Loren), the islands are steeped in a seductive sense of history, tradition and adventure. Several films have been shot on them over the decades, including Boy on a Dolphin (1957) on Hydra, The Big Blue (1988) on Amorgos and The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants (2005) on Santorini. The ancient ruins, cliff-top monasteries and volcanic rims have been a source of inspiration for millennia and are not to be missed.
