May, June, September and early October cost noticeablyless than high summer.
2.Choose slower ferries:
conventional boats are cheaper than high-speed ones.

Naxos, Paros, Milos and Sifnos usually cost less than Mykonosor Santorini.
4.Book early for peak dates:
ferries and rooms rise in price as dates approach.
5.Stay outside the main town:
a few minutes away often means lower prices.
6.Eat where locals eat:
simple tavernas away from the harbor front often offer bettervalue.
7.Order house wine and local dishes:
carafes are usually cheaper than bottles.
8.Self-cater occasionally:
local bakeries and markets make cheap picnic lunches.
9.Use public buses:
many islands have inexpensive bus networks.
10.Enjoy free beaches:
beaches in Greece are public, and you can use your own towelinstead of renting sunbeds.
11.Limit one-night stays:
each move costs time and money.
