While Santorini is the perfect place for couples and we believe it’s the best choice, there is the small island of Zakynthos that you should definitely not avoid.
Zakynthos is famous for the clearest water and the perfect sandy beaches will make sure your other half will be pleased to the maximum. Amazing little villages and the Greek food to die for Zakynthos island is a perfect combination if you want to spend your time on a Greek island.
