Visitors can explore ancient ruins like the UNESCO World Heritage site of Delos, birthplace of Apollo, or relax on stunning beaches with crystal-clear waters. The islands host various cultural festivals throughout the year, including the Syros International Film Festival in July and numerous religious celebrations honouring local patron saints.
