The best places to visit in Greece for summer 2025

The best places to visit in Greece for summer 2025

Greece is, quite simply, king of the holidays. It’s a country full of sprawling cities, beautiful islands and some of the best beaches in the entire world, and the food? Don’t even get us started on the food. There’s a hell of a lot of islands, and our editors have been to a hell of a lot of them, but for the on-the-ground knowledge that only a local has, we’ve roped in our Greece expert Demetrios Ioannou, who grew up in Athens but has travelled all over the country. Whatever you’re looking for, here are the best places to visit in Greece.  Where should I go for my first time in Greece? We’re firm believers that everyone should go to Athens at least once in their lives. So if it’s your first time visiting the country, you should probably start there. But the good news is that in Greece, you can pretty much do it all. So don’t stay in Athens for a full week – spend a perfect weekend there before heading out on a ferry to Aegina, Poros, Hydra and more. If you’ve ticked off Athens already, consider Greece’s latest destination dupe, Paros, which is set to this year’s ‘new Santorini’ (just without the crowds).  📍 RECOMMENDED: Discover our ultimate guide to Greece Which is the best Greek island to visit? If we’re talking most popular, Santorini and Mykonos are always going to be top of the list. But Greece has more than 6,000 islands and islets, each with its own unique vibe and all worth visiting for entirely different reasons. Crete is Greece’s biggest island, in the south of th

The 22 best burgers in Sydney

The 22 best burgers in Sydney

A burger is a simple premise, but doing them well is truly a dark art. Do you go with the classic sesame seed or the more gastronomic potato, milk or brioche buns? Do you prefer American cheese, blue or cheddar? How about caramelised onions, pickled or raw? Lettuce and tomato, or cheese and pickles? Is your protein power chicken, fish, beef, or mushroom? And we haven’t even gotten to the question of fries yet.  There are a thousand variations on a burger, but Time Out Sydney's local food writers, including Editor Avril Treasure, have tried all the top buns in town – and these are the best in Sydney.

We’ve all done it. We’ve all left something important in a place we shouldn’t have, whether that’s a phone, wallet, set of keys, a small piece of our dignity. The rich and famous certainly aren’t immune from doing the same – and the latest to do so is none other than Kylie Minogue.  The Aussie pop princess (‘Princess of Pop’, actually) has apparently left a prized possession in a London Uber Exec. Kylie’s purple latex gloves from her Tension tour (pictured above) are lying on the backseat of one of the capital’s vehicles.  The eye-catching gloves are specifically in an Uber Exec, which is the ride-sharing app’s premium option. Whether Kylie actually accidentally left the purple appendage coverings might be up for debate, but here’s the exciting bit: if you find the gloves, you can keep ’em.  Yep, a Londoner could soon own a piece of pop history.

I went sky-diving to overcome my fear of heights – it didn’t quite go to plan

I went sky-diving to overcome my fear of heights – it didn’t quite go to plan

There’s a one in 653,000 chance of death when you do a tandem skydive in the UK and there were reportedly no fatalities in the 20 years between 1997 and 2016. Statistically, that’s much safer than hiking. I knew all this, but that didn’t stop me from thinking about death approximately 19 times a day in the weeks leading up to my jump. The possibilities of death, it seemed, were endless. I had dreams of my eyeballs being sucked out of my head while falling at a hundred miles per hour and of Storm Darragh pushing me off course into the icy waters of the North Sea. I’d had dark thoughts about the parachute being unable to go up; darker thoughts of a bird crashing into me as it travelled south for winter and toppling to my grave in a pile of feathers, beak and blood. I have a fear of heights. It’s not unreasonable, it doesn’t restrict my daily life, but it is very much there. It’s the impending drop which gets me: the empty space, the threat of gravity, uninterrupted. I hate jumping off cliffs into bodies of water and looking down from the tops of tall buildings makes my stomach turn. If I think too much about it, I start to feel a dizzying panic, a walls-closing-in sort of anxiety, like the floor could give away at any minute. A skydive would be a chance to prove to myself that, while not completely ridiculous, this fear was irrational in most scenarios.

À seulement 4h de Paris, cette ville côtière du sud-ouest est la destination balnéaire incontournable de l’été selon Time Out

Et si on oubliait Lisbonne, Rome et les Cyclades cet été ? À l’été 2024, Marseille a concentré tous les regards, et tous les flux. Sur les réseaux, la cité phocéenne défilait en boucle : bacs de vinyles, eaux turquoise des Calanques, fresques du Cours Julien… Même les chiens semblaient avoir adopté la tendance. Deux ans plus tôt, c’est l’Albanie qui créait la surprise : ses plages discrètes et ses festivals en plein essor lui avaient valu le surnom de « nouvelle Croatie ». Alors, quelle destination s’imposera comme le point de chute incontournable de l’été 2025 ? Les journalistes voyage de Time Out avancent quelques pistes. De la Belgique arty à l’Italie alpine, tour d’horizon des lieux qui risquent bien de coloniser vos fils cet été. Nos paris pour l’été 2025 : entre brutalisme, bikinis et bocaux de Spritz Anvers, d’abord. La ville belge s’affiche de plus en plus sur les réseaux sociaux. « Entre ses boulangeries design, ses bars à bières artisanales et vins nature, ses friperies pleines de pépites et ses lieux d’art comme le MAS ou le Musée d’Art Contemporain, Anvers pourrait bien être la réponse 2025 à Copenhague ou Berlin », observe Liv Kelly, journaliste voyage pour Time Out.

These are Europe’s next summer hotspots, according to Time Out editors

These are Europe’s next summer hotspots, according to Time Out editors

In summer 2024, it seemed like everyone and their chic pooch headed to the sun-soaked shores of Marseille for their European summer holiday. Our social feeds were flooded with scenes of the city’s vintage and vinyl shops, the dreamy turquoise waters of the Calanques and the graffiti-covered streets of Cours Julien. And before that, it was all about Albania: in 2022 and 2023, the Balkan country saw a sudden influx of festival-goers and beach-hoppers, earning it the moniker of ‘the new Croatia’.

A giant Trump head has popped up in Sydney

A giant Trump head has popped up in Sydney

Donald Trump is yet to make a presidential visit to Sydney, but Melbourne-based artist Callum Morton has delivered us something even better – and frankly, probably less likely to cause permanent damage to our beautiful city. His new artwork, 'Monument #32: Helter Shelter', allows visitors to step inside Trump's head, take a seat, and take shelter from the elements. Which frankly makes this Trump significantly more useful than the actual 45th president of the United States. The temporary sculpture, installed by the water at the end of Exchange Place in Barangaroo, is about the size of a bus stop. At the front, Trump stares down Barangaroo with striking blue eyes. The back of his head is hollowed out and completely empty. Make of that what you will.   Callum Morton Photograph: Daniel Boud   "So it's pretty obvious what this is," Morton says of the artwork. "It belongs to the language of the parade float or the kind of protest float... To reduce a figure like Trump to that kind of caricature is of interest to me." The sculpture will be at Barangaroo until September 24, and reflects the giant head of Luna Park, just across the harbour. "The hollow brain of Trump is a shelter – a furnace, if you like – where you can sit," Morton says. "It's not really about Trump so much... I've been meditating on these figures of power for a number of years. It's really about how a figure like Trump becomes so powerful. In the world we live in, there's always been figures like this – snake oil

This neighborhood in Queens was just named the hottest, according to StreetEasy

This neighborhood in Queens was just named the hottest, according to StreetEasy

New York real estate has always been wildly unpredictable, but for the past few years, there's been one reliable trend: the outer boroughs are getting hotter and hotter, while Manhattan is steadily cooling off. In fact, according to a new survey by StreetEasy, nine out of the 10 most-sought-after neighborhoods in New York City right now are in Brooklyn and Queens, and only one is in Manhattan. RECOMMENDED: New York City ranks as no. 3 on Time Out’s list of 50 best cities!  StreetEasy determined the hottest neighborhoods based on the amount of searches on its database among buyers and renters from 2023 to 2024. Ridgewood came in first place, followed by Greenwood in second place and Long Island City in third place.  It makes sense why Ridgewood is so coveted right now: while the neighborhood is right next to Bushwick, one of the most-sought-after destinations for nightlife and entertainment, Ridgewood boasts quieter vibes. In its report, StreetEasy noted that "renters [are] seeking a more residential feel—or simply a change of scenery" from Bushwick. And, even though the area is often overshadowed by its southern neighbor, it has a growing share of great restaurants, cool cafes and amazing bars—so much so that we named it one of the coolest neighborhoods in the world, and the coolest in NYC, back in 2022.  The StreetEasy report also found that the year on year searches for the neighborhood grew a staggering 13.2%, and the median asking rent increased by 8.3% year on year to $3
映画祭「Festa Incognita」が10月開催、世界中の奇妙な作品を上映

映画祭「Festa Incognita」が10月開催、世界中の奇妙な作品を上映

世界中の奇妙な作品を集めた映画祭「Festa Incognita」が、2025年10月に「ユナイテッド・シネマ豊洲」で初開催される。主催は日本未公開の映画を紹介するZINE「Incognita」シリーズを手がけ、映画評論サークル「コーンビーム」の代表も務めるシメギウムだ。 上映が決定しているのはルーマニア、ナイジェリア、モロッコの3作品。シメギウムは「『Incognita』シリーズの制作中に気になった、日本人にはあまりなじみのない国の映画を上映する」と話す。 画像提供:シメギウム「Be My Cat: A Film for Anne」(ルーマニア、2015年) 『Be My Cat: A Film for Anne』(ルーマニア、2015年)は、アン・ハサウェイの熱心なファンである監督が、彼女に認めてもらい自らの作品に出てほしいと映画を制作するファウンド・フッテージホラー。ファウンド・フッテージとは、他の作家が制作した映像(フッテージ)を作品の全体または一部に用いる手法を指す。 画像提供:シメギウムBe My Cat: A Film for Anne シメギウムに、参加者に感じてほしいことを尋ねると「本作は、ストレートに不快感です」と回答。「身の丈に合わない野望に向けて努力する主人公は、本作がファウンドフッテージなこともあって主観的に映るでしょう。しかし、彼の技術と才能のなさが我々視聴者を一歩引いた客観視へと引きはがしてくる。その視点で彼の奇行を観て、ドン引きしてほしいと思っています」と語る。 画像提供:シメギウム「Mami Wata」(ナイジェリア、2023年) 『Mami Wata』(ナイジェリア、2023年)は、現代社会と隔絶された西アフリカ海岸の村イユが舞台となる。水の女神「マミ・ワタ」を信仰する原住民族と技術革新の葛藤にフォーカスを当てたフォークスリラー(民俗的な怪異をモチーフにしたホラー映画)だ。同作は、第96回アカデミー賞国際長編映画賞(旧外国語映画賞)のナイジェリア代表作品にも選出された。 画像提供:シメギウムMami Wata 「同作からは映画の新ジャンルを感じていただければと思っています。日本の時代劇やアメリカの西部劇、インドのダンス映画など国固有の映画ジャンルは意外と多くありません。本作はナイジェリア映画いわゆる『ノリウッド』でしか作られない唯一無二の作風を感じさせます。モノクロの画面に映るハイコントラストな民族衣装と化粧、土着信仰をベースにしたストーリー、あらゆる点で今後のノリウッドを語るのに欠かせない作品であることを実感します」(シメギウム) 画像提供:シメギウム「The Sky Trembles and the Earth Is Afraid and the Two Eyes Are Not Brothers」(モロッコ、2015年) 『The Sky Trembles and the Earth Is Afraid and the Two Eyes Are Not Brothers』(モロッコ、2015年)は、映画撮影ためモロッコを訪れるオリバー・ラクセ監督に密着するドキュメンタリー。……のはずが現実と映画、劇中劇が入れ替わり続けるという新感覚アヴァンギャルドホラーである。 画像提供:シメギウムThe Sky Trembles and the Earth is Afraid and the Two Eyes Are Not Brothers 「同作で感じてほしいのは混乱です。あまり詳しく話

So, 2024. Quite the year, eh?

As always, we here at Time Out kept on top of everything culturally great about 2024. Over the past year London was host to show-stopping gastronomy, awesome theatrical productions and mighty exhibitions, as well as non-London-specific highlights in music, film and TV. Whether you’re looking to catch up on 2024’s highlights while you still can or are simply in a reminiscent mood, here’s a round-up of London’s best bits from the past 12 months.   RECOMMENDED:⭐️ 15 of the best Time Out London covers of 2024.📖 The best Time Out features and long-reads of 2024. The best restaurants, pubs and dishes Topping our list of the city’s best individual dishes was the Scotched ’nduja olives at Sesta in London Fields: ‘tubby, deep-fried nuggets of spicy sausage served like a scotch egg’ which our food and drink editor Leonie Cooper called ‘heroically tasty’. You can find all eight of the best things we ate in the city here. Sesta also took home the gong in our ranking of the best new restaurants in London (find that list here), while our overall best restaurants list (featuring older estabs too) was topped by Clapton’s Mambow.
