Sikinos
With only about 300 inhabitants, Sikinos is perfect for vacationers looking for peace and quiet. On this island there are both barren mountains and fertile valleys, and whoever wants can reach and visit all three places of the island in a relatively short time. However, extensive hiking is difficult on the island due to the steep slopes. One can definitely say that this island is something for vacationers who are looking for absolute peace and tranquility. Agriculture and fishing, along with tourism, are the main sources of income for the inhabitants, who live a modest life.
The ferry port on the island of Sikinos offers connections to the other Greek islands of Thira, Thirasia, Paros, Folegandros, Ios, Kea, Sifnos, Serifos, Milos, Kythnos, Kimolos, Anafi, Syros and Naxos, as well as to the ports of Piraeus and Lavrio on the Greek mainland. A total of 16 routes are offered here several times a day by the shipping companies Hellenic Seaways, SeaJets and Zante Ferries.
Thirasia
The island belongs to the Cyclades group. With a good nine km², Thirasia is only slightly larger than Baltrum, the smallest East Frisian island in the North Sea. The two harbor villages are Korfos and Riva. The main village on Thirasia is Manolas with several hundred inhabitants. Thirasia is not so much a destination for a longer vacation stay as for day tourists from Santorini, the 90 km² island directly opposite and much better known among holidaymakers. The almost untouched nature of Thireasia will really inspire you. Island destinations are the monastery Kimisi Theotokou in 200 m height at the southeast tip, the church Agios Charalambos or the abandoned village Kera. On Thirasia you can relax from your hectic everyday life.
