Kimolos
The 55 km² island of the Western Cyclades group offers a rather spartan tourism at the beginning of the 2020s. But you can really feel an absolutely authentic atmosphere and enjoy the hospitality of the islanders to the fullest. The almost thousand inhabitants are spread over half a dozen villages and settlements. The island is of volcanic origin and therefore rich in minerals. For you as a vacationer, the main village of Chorio Kimolou, including a former fortress village, is of tourist interest - as are the ruins of ancient tombs on the southwest coast near Elinika beach.
The ferry port on the island of Kimolos offers connections to the other Greek islands of Andros, Sikinos, Thira, Paros, Tinos, Folegandros, Ios, Sifnos, Serifos, Milos, Kythnos, Syros and Naxos, as well as to the ferry port of Piraeus on the Greek mainland. A total of 14 routes are offered here several times a day by the shipping companies Hellenic Seaways, SeaJets and Zante Ferries.
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.
