Viewed from mainland Croatia, Rab appears to be barren – a stretch of desolate rock wedged between azure sky and the deep blue Kvarner Gulf. However, the island’s west coast is remarkably green and is covered with forests, olive groves, vineyards and fields. The biggest community is picturesque Rab Town, which sits on a small peninsula that forms a pretty u-shaped natural harbor. A quartet of church towers rise over its historic quarter, where the narrow streets are lined with impressive medieval and Venetian buildings.

Two fortresses – the Ottoman-era Néokástro and medieval Paleokastro – welcome you to the Bay of Navarínou, a natural harbor in the Peloponnese. Established after the 1827 naval battle that paved the way for an independent Greece, Pylos now guards the entrance to this beautiful bay. The area’s many beaches are unspoiled, most notably Voïdhokiliá, a picture-perfect semicircle of white sand that separates the Gialova Lagoon from the sea. A short drive from town takes you to the hilltop ruins of Nestor’s Palace.

From the colorful and unique imperió shrines that dot the cobblestoned streets of the port town of Praia Da Vitória, to the atmospheric allure of Algar do Carvão, a 90-meter-deep volcanic chimney that formed some 3,200 years ago, the island of Terceira is an utter joy to explore. Spend a day relaxing on a volcanic beach, dive the island’s incredible shipwrecks and reefs, or head to the historic town of Angra do Heroísmo.
