Folegandros: An Undiscovered European Destination

Folegandros

The Huffington Post news site has included the Greek island of Folegandros in its 15 picks for the best undiscovered European destinations.

“When it comes to the very best European destinations, bigger does not always mean better,” says Emily Wasserman of the Huffington Post.

According to Ms. Wasserman, some of the region’s most rewarding and best-kept secrets are alternatively set well off-the-beaten path.

On Folegandros in the Cycladic Islands of Greece, Ms. Wasserman says: “Often overshadowed by neighboring Santorini, Folegandros proposes a welcomed escape from the hustle and bustle of more popular Greek islands. Perched on a towering seaside cliff, the island doesn’t offer much in the way of attractions – but makes up for it with local charm. Visitors can explore untouched beaches, sample traditional food, and spend quiet evenings contemplating the breathtaking, sun-touched cliffs.”

Other “undiscovered European destinations” on the Huffington Post’s list include: Sainte-Agnes, France; Coimbra, Portugal; Kotor, Montenegro; Warsaw, Poland; and Bolgheri, Italy.
