Greek Islands Scenic Cruising, Greece cruises

Cruising the Greek Islands on your Cunard Queen is like sailing inside a postcard, where cliffs studded with olive groves spill into sapphire sea – the gem-like quality enhanced by the sun’s shimmering rays on the surface. Closer to shore, wooden fishing boats, long since retired from their day’s duty, sway rhythmically on anchor, circled by an ever-present canopy of seabirds, while clusters of whitewashed houses pepper the coastline like chalk dots on a blackboard. 

You may spot the occasional cave and inlet or even find yourself confronted by the faint smell of wild herbs wafting across the water on the warm sea breeze. Depending on the route your Captain charters, you could lay your eyes on Santorini’s blue-domed churches, the sentinel-like windmills of Mykonos, or terraced hillsides streaked green with the canopies of cypress trees.
