According to major Austrian media, Naxos is emerging as the protagonist of the summer after the celebration of the 30 years of connection of the destination with the Austrian market and the anniversary actions supported by the municipality of Naxos and Small Cyclades with the Austrian EOT Office.

Greek tourism may be flourishing, which is also reflected in the increase in international arrivals, but the situation on the "iconic" islands of Greece, Mykonos and Santorini, is somewhat different.

The majority of Greeks choose their holiday homes - if they have one -, being hosted by friends or relatives - if they have a property in... privileged locations - or rooms for rent in order to be able to go on vacation this year. Few and in a single digit percentage are those who stay in hotels, most of which do not include meals in the accommodation package. In fact, almost half will cook many of the holiday meals, because eating out every day... doesn't work out.
