However, according to the article there are more than 6.000 islands and islets belonging to Greece, out of which a mere 78 have more than 100 inhabitants, according to the latest figures. “In other words, there’s a whole lot of Greece surrounded by water”, as the article points out, encouraging its readers to discover the “secret islands” of Greece.

The article concludes posing the question on whether to “go, or not to go”. The message is clearly positive, prompting the readers to visit Greece for their holidays and that it should not be avoided this year.
