The Greek islands are some of the most sought-after locations for couples who are ready to get married, more specifically, for that special moment of popping the question.
In light of Valentine’s Day, a popular Italian travel website specializing in vacations in Greece announced a list of the five best Greek islands for marriage proposals, tailored to the preferences of Italian travelers.
Based on the experiences of the list’s editors and the comments of thousands of its readers, Greece has everything necessary for that moment that will forever be etched in the memory of the loving couple.
Skopelos is at the top of the list, which, according to the website, is an excellent choice for a marriage proposal. The view is extremely relaxing thanks to the dense vegetation alternating with the bright green of the pines and the crystal blue of the sea.
Sifnos came in second, with the island rapidly evolving into a favorite marriage-proposal destination while maintaining its authenticity, with its two villages, Artemonas and Apollonia, stealing the show.
Ios takes the baton, described as that destination for lovers. A unique island that everyone experiences in their own special way. It is “the island” of hiking, dreamy beaches, Homer, and parties.
In the next position are the Leipsoi, a captivating place with a romantic atmosphere where after 3 days of vacation, one already feels like a local. Ios takes the baton, described as that destination for lovers that everyone experiences in their way. It is an island of hiking, dreamy beaches, Homer, and parties.
Karpathos, which offers a unique variety of landscapes, comes in next on the list, with some hidden areas remaining peaceful even in August, while it takes at least two weeks to explore.
