Small ship cruises in Greece stop off at small islands not only because they can physically access them (larger ships cannot) but also because they have a rich cultural and natural heritage and are still not too affected by mass tourism. There are no international chains here; expect tavernas, shops and bars run by local families. With few tourists visiting these out of the way spots, spending your euros here can be a big boost to the village economy. You can experience local festivals, from the grape harvest on Santorini to the Dekapendavgoustos religious festival celebrated all over Greece 15 August; it is particularly wonderful to experience these in small towns in the Peloponnese or Dodecanese. You are encouraged to spend as much time in the heart of the Greek communities as you are within your boat community on these trips.
