Islands

1.Mykonos and the Cyclades, 76.1

Why?
The quintessential Greek islands: white sugar-cube villages; blue-domed churches; arid, rocky landscapes; turquoise Aegean; talcum-powder beaches.
Mykonos and Santorini, rock stars of the Cycladic Islands, with swank hotels and trendy restaurants.

2.Capri, 73.0

Why?
To live life on the edge at cliff-hanging hotels, bars, and Roman ruins.
Picking up a pair of custom-made capri pants and feeling Jackie O.
The refreshingly unstuffy La Capannina, where you can ogle A-listers as you sip your limoncello.

3.Sicily, 72.1

Why?
Spectacular ruined temples and theaters in the ancient Greek cities of Agrigento, Siracusa, and Segesta.
Palermo, with its picturesque, semi-crumbling palazzos, grand piazzas, and vibrant markets.
Bold, spicy cuisine served at seaside cafes and Michelin-starred restaurants.
