description: Better known individually than by the name of the whole archipelago, the islands of Corfu, Paxos, Lefkas, Ithaca, Cephallonia and Zakinthos include some of the best-known Greek holiday islands. Italianate architecture, cypress trees and olive groves, bathed in a nurturing climate, characterize the islands. Corfu and Zakinthos are the most commercialized, with Cephallonia rapidly catching up, but Lefkas and Ithaca still offer pockets of a rural way of life little touched by tourism. Whatever your plans, the Rough Guide will help you fulfil them.
