About Cyclades
The archetypal Greek islands: whitewashed villages, blue domes, windy Aegean beaches and volcanic landscapes.
Islands(18)
Amorgos
A long, steep island with the cliffside Hozoviotissa monastery and famously clear diving water.
Andros
Green valleys, springs and a 300-kilometre marked hiking network — the Cyclades for walkers.
Antiparos
A ten-minute hop from Paros: one whitewashed main street, a huge stalactite cave and shallow sandy bays.
Folegandros
One cliff-top village 200 metres above the sea, dramatic hikes and only a handful of beaches.
Ios
Famous for nightlife, but also for Mylopotas' long sandy bay and a hilltop chora of tiny chapels.
Kea
Closest Cyclade to Athens: oak forest, ancient stone trails and quiet coves with no airport traffic.
Kimolos
A chalk-white islet beside Milos with hot springs, one village and beaches you often have to yourself.
Koufonisia
Tiny Small Cyclades island where every beach is walkable and the sea is startlingly shallow and clear.
Kythnos
Weekend island for Athenians, with thermal springs and the double sandbar beach at Kolona.
Milos
A volcanic island with lunar rock formations at Sarakiniko and more than 70 wildly different beaches.
Mykonos
Windmills, beaches and nightlife
Naxos
The greenest Cyclade — mountain villages, its own cheese and wine, and kilometre-long west-coast beaches.
Paros
Marble villages, the harbour of Naoussa and a windsurf coast make Paros the all-rounder of the Cyclades.
Santorini
Iconic white-washed villages, stunning sunsets, and volcanic beaches in the Aegean Sea.
Serifos
A rugged mining island with a vertical chora, empty beaches and almost no package tourism.
Sifnos
Greece's pottery and cooking island: hilltop villages, a coastal footpath network and slow-food tavernas.
Syros
The Cycladic capital, where neoclassical Ermoupoli feels more like an opera city than an island port.
Tinos
A pilgrimage island of 40 marble villages, dovecotes and windswept beaches loved by kitesurfers.
