    Top tips for travelling to the Cyclades, Greece with kids

    Book your hotel early

    Particularly if you’re restricted to travelling during the school holidays, it’s advisable to plan well in advance and secure your preferred accommodation to avoid disappointment. On the most popular islands, there are so many family-friendly hotel options, so do your research to find the perfect stay.

    Plan your itinerary

    As any parent will tell you, failing to plan your holiday activities in advance is often a recipe for disaster. The kids will need constant entertainment, and you’ll want to have plenty of options to keep everyone happy. Fortunately, there are plenty of activities to choose from across the islands in Greece with kids in mind, both at sea and on land, so even the fussiest little traveller will find something they enjoy.

    Pick your island carefully

    Though island hopping may seem an attractive proposition to the adults in your party, you’ll have to consider the logistics when travelling with little ones, who may not cope so well with all the travelling involved with this type of holiday. As such, you’re more likely to settle on just one or two locations to truly enjoy the Cyclades, Greece with kids in tow. Read on to find out which island would best suit your holiday preferences.

     

    Where to go in the Cyclades, Greece with kids

    Naxos

    Naxos is the largest island in the Cyclades, and remains one of the best places in the archipelago for families travelling to Greece with kids. Water parks, sandy beaches and watersports – this Cycladic jewel has all the ingredients necessary for an unforgettable family holiday. Its central location within the archipelago means it’s easy to access the surrounding islands, if you’re willing to brave some island hopping with the kids.

    Santorini

    Best known as a honeymooners’ paradise, Santorini actually has plenty to offer your little adventurers. For instance, a boat tour to the caldera has to feature on any Santorini itinerary. And though the island isn’t blessed with soft sandy beaches, there are plenty of excellent swimming spots around the island, so pack up the snorkelling gear and prepare for some underwater exploration.

    Amorgos

    Whilst it may not share the celebrity status of some of its neighbours, Amorgos has all the makings of a dream holiday destination in Greece with kids. The slower pace of life is conducive to a more relaxing getaway. But don’t be fooled – there are plenty of high-octane activities on offer to get the hearts racing. Amorgos is generally cheaper than other more popular destinations in the region. So could be more suitable if you’re travelling on a tight budget.
