The following attractions, accommodation, shops and restaurants have been selected by Lonely Planet authors because they demonstrate a commitment to sustainability. We’ve selected restau-rants and hotels that aim to safeguard the environment by using organic ingredients or practising water conservation. We’ve listed shops that help to sustain the local economy by selling locally produced organic goods. And we’ve hunted down attractions that are involved in conservation or environmental education.

Greece is getting greener by the day – if you find someone we’ve not included in our GreenDex who should be listed here, email us at http://www.lonelyplanet.com/contact. For more tips about travelling sustainably in Greece, turn to Getting Started (p20) and for further information about sustainable tourism and Lonely Planet, see www.lonelyplanet.com/responsibletravel.
