The Ionian Islands off the west coast of Greece – Corfu, Kefalonia, Zakynthos, Lefkada, Ithaca, Paxos, Anti-Paxi and Kythira – are justly famous for their beautiful sandy beaches, crystal clear waters, charming villages and stunning natural beauty.

This weekend, the Holiday and Travel Show taking place at Melbourne’s Royal Exhibition Building, will be showcasing this unique Hellenic holiday destination.

The expo will mark the first time Greece has participated in one of Australia’s most important tourism events, and is part of a major initiative to promote travel, trade and cultural connections between Australia and the Ionian region.
