Furtunately for travelers and natives to Greece, almost all public beaches are dog-friendly. The only rules that apply are that you keep the beach clean by tidying up after your pup and keep them on a leash at all times.

Pets travel free of charge in specially designed pet cabins available on all vessels of the Greek Ferries companies. However, it is necessary to reserve these cabins in advance. Should these be fully booked, a small number of kennels are also available, as well as special areas for the pets' daily hygiene.

A small number of airlines, including JetBlue, Alaska Airlines, and Etihad Airways, allow passengers flying with dogs to buy an extra seat for their pet.
