7Prespa Lakes, Western Macedonia
The Prespa Lakes offer one of the most unusual summer experiences in Greece.
Located in the far north-west of the country and surrounded by mountains, the area has a completely different atmosphere from the typical Greek island holiday.
Visitors can explore Agios Germanos, walk beside the lakes, discover traditional villages and observe the area’s impressive birdlife.
Summer days can still be warm, but nights are often considerably fresher than in southern Greece.
The region is particularly suitable for people who enjoy peaceful destinations, nature and slow travel.
Best for: Wildlife, photography, road trips and quiet holidays.
