Santorini
Santorini is a unique place worth visiting. I don’t care how touristy it is. The caldera is beautiful from the water and Perissa is our favorite beach town.

Milos North Coast Touring
Milos’ north coast includes must-see Sarakiniko along with a couple of other picturesque spots.
Rhodes Town
Staying in the old town was so much more interesting than staying in the new town like I did last time I was here. Much more atmosphere and down at the south end where we stayed it was pretty peaceful.
Lindos
Lindos was a nice way to get through jet lag. An acropolis to climb to and a beach for relaxing. More people than I expected in the village after dark – I thought there would be more day trippers – but not mobbed. Should have made dinner reservations though.
Panama City Beach
We stayed near the beach near Panama City Beach but never made it into town. The beach was our destination! And it was a great beach for relaxing and walking. Not busy at all.
Orange Beach
Orange Beach wasn’t really our kind of place. Too many high rises. Too much traffic. The beach and the nearby state park are beautiful though.
Bay Saint Louis
We found Bay Saint Louis a charming, low key coastal town with a surprisingly nice beach.
Port Aransas
Port Aransas was the relaxed little beach town we were expecting. It was unexpectedly walkable and birding opportunities were closer than we thought.
Wilderness State Park
We spent five relaxing days at Wilderness state park, hiking and kayaking and camping along the beach. And it’s still close to Mackinac Island.
