When to go to the island's best:

To the island in May ~ October is very appropriate, the best season is June to September. Aegean Sea is very cold in winter, sometimes even below zero is a year in the off-season, no tourists on the island, the hotel price is the lowest in a year.

Visa and insurance:

Greek self-help travel visa is notoriously difficult to sign, harsh conditions is also very high rejection rate, is recommended to apply in other EU countries of the Schengen visa and then to the greek.

There are some friends still do not step out the first step of foreign travel is based on fear of unexpected events lack of resilience and worry that some security considerations. In fact, buy a wide coverage of insurance is very secure, overseas insurance is not only one of the European Schengen visa application must be submitted to the material, and its own security a "reassurance that self-help travel".
