“You’d be hard pushed to find a holiday spot as beautiful as the Greek Islands”, writes the Irish “Independent” that included the Greek islands in its top ten list of the best world travel destinations for 2015, praising their whitewashed walls, the cobalt blue of their waters, their covens and cuisine. This is a great time to visit Greece, note the editors, as “despite a tricky few years, there are signs of a comeback for the tourism industry” in the country.   

According to the Irish Independent, the Irish tour operator Falcon has added Kos and Rhodes on its brochures this year, while the low-cost carrier Aer Lingus has launched direct flies to Corfu. Top 10 destinations for 2015 as picked by the Irish Independent are:
