Represented in its flag, Greece's national colours are blue and white - white representing its beautiful beaches and buildings and blue the clear seas that surround it. For cheap Greece holidays in 2013 you may want to think about heading to one of Greece's numerous islands, such as Corfu, Crete, Rhodes or Thassos. These popular tourist resorts are competitively priced and have plenty to do and see for all the family.

Hot on Greece's tail as a popular Mediterranean holiday destination is Turkey; a land equally rich in history, heritage, culture and life.
Turkey's Mediterranean shoreline, known as the Turquoise Coast, is almost 1,000 kilometres in length and is scattered with beautiful fine-sand beaches set within a backdrop of verdurous pine-clad forests.
