Syros is like the endearing younger brother in the Cyclades; rural villages encompass the capital, relaxing restaurants offer fresh food and colourful houses grace the landscape - yet despite its charm and charisma - the island never roars into touristic prominence like its siblings. Though Syros is hardly a deserted island; a steady stream of visitors create a friendly atmosphere that never overflows into uncomfortable busyness - the beaches are popular but not overcrowded and you can always find a seat at a café or restaurant. It is the perfect cocktail of vibrant tranquillity. Much like every Greek island, Syros has gradually adapted its market and outlets to appeal to tourists, however, it has admirably maintained its authentic traditions. Ermoupolis City Hall and Saint Nicholas Church are examples of original architecture, showcasing the impressive structural designs that are quintessential of their location. Several churches and cathedrals add to the rustic experience, and art galleries and museums provide a cultural edge.
Much of the island is possible to cover by foot or bicycle, and there are companies offering scooter rental for fairly cheap prices.
Laying to the south of Greece, Milos is one of the many Greek Islands that are a popular destination for holidaymakers. The only ferry route from Milos is to Piraeus, another Greek Island, with crossings lasting from just over two hours to over six hours, and running several times per week. After visiting the uniquely colourful and engrossing rock formations stretching across the shores of the island, it is easy to see why Milos is regarded as ‘The Island of Colours’. The volcanic island has become a hotbed of tourism over the past few years, with the ancient buildings near the luxurious beaches proving to be an alluring combination. For couples looking for a romantic getaway, Milos is the perfect place; myriad of beautiful walking trails are lined across the land, offering views of idyllic sunsets and glorious surroundings. For a historical experience, the museums are a worthwhile way to spend an afternoon, especially on the rare occasion when the weather isn’t as warm as usual. To witness the beautiful aesthetics Milos has to offer, head to the impressive Ancient Theatre, which lays in the Ancient City of Fylakopi. The whole experience in the Ancient City of Fylakopi is fascinating, and to continue the historical theme, the Catacombs of Tripiti Village portray the traditional values of the island.
