Syros
The name of the island originally means something like "rocky" - and that aptly describes what awaits you on Syros. In addition to the rugged natural formations, the island is home to the administrative center of the Cyclades. Accordingly, it is busy here all year round. Here you will especially meet Greeks from the mainland; international tourists are rather less to be found here. The cultural side is not neglected here either, and churches, a theater and a library are among the most important places on the island. If you are looking for beautiful beaches, you will find them on the southern and western side.
The ferry port on the island of Syros offers connections to the other Greek islands of Andros, Donoussa, Tinos, Folegandros, Amorgos, Mykonos, Lesbos, Samos, Kimolos, Kalymnos, Kos, Thira, Thirasia, Paros, Ios, Ikaria, Serifos, Kythnos, Milos, Chios, Rhodes, Fournoi, Crete, Patmos, Oinousses, Schinoussa, Astypalea, Naxos, Sikinos, Koufonissi, Symi, Kea, Iraklia, Leros, Sifnos, Euboea, Limnos and Anafi as well as to the ports of Thessaloniki, Kavala, Piraeus and Lavrio on the Greek mainland. A total of 45 routes are offered here several times a day by the shipping companies Cyclades Fast Ferries, SeaJets, Blue Star Ferries, Minoan Lines and Hellenic Seaways.
Kythnos
The island with its capital of the same name is with 100 km² comparable in size to the North Frisian island of Sylt. You reach Kythnos as your vacation destination in the region of the Southern Aegean Sea. Together with the islands of Kea, Serifos and Sifnos, Kythnos forms the island chain of the Cyclades. On Kythnos you will find both rural seclusion and tourist activities. You can bathe and swim at five dozen beaches - or take a detour to the thermal and iron springs that run right through the island town of Loutra. In the village of Kanala in the south of the island, you should visit the Greek Orthodox pilgrimage church.
