Friends of the Ionian (FOI) is an association born out of Greek Islands Club’s concern for the protection of the social and natural history of the Ionian Islands. FOI was set up in 1990 as an independent non-profit making organisation with a policy to ensure that tourism develops in a manner consistent with the interests of the Ionian community, the environment, and the “greening” nature of today’s traveller.
FOI aims to Improve the quality of tourism for visitors, islanders and the environment. FOI pioneers simple, practical and fun approaches to making tourism sustainable. FOI works to ensure that you have access not only to the nearest beach but also to the region’s special environment and culture.
