Northern Cyclades

Start your journey in the Cyclades by exploring the northern islands. Visit Syros, the charming capital of the archipelago, known for its neoclassical architecture and vibrant harbor. Explore the UNESCO-listed island of Delos, one of Greece’s most important archaeological sites, where ancient temples and ruins offer a glimpse into the birthplace of Apollo and Artemis. You can also visit Mykonos for world-renowned nightlife, or head to Andros for lush green landscapes and scenic hiking trails.More...

Central Cyclades

The heart of the Cyclades offers a mix of authentic island life and outdoor adventure. Paros enchants visitors with its traditional villages, whitewashed alleys, and relaxed beaches. On Amorgos — the filming location for The Big Blue — you’ll find dramatic hiking routes and panoramic sea views. For travelers seeking variety, Naxos delivers a perfect blend of sandy beaches, cultural landmarks, and mountain trails.

Western Cyclades

The western Cyclades are ideal for beach lovers and those seeking relaxation. Milos boasts some of the archipelago’s most stunning beaches, including Firiplaka and Kleftiko, with their striking volcanic rock formations. Sifnos offers peaceful beaches, charming villages, and a vibrant culinary scene, making it perfect for families. Adventurous travelers can explore Serifos, a wilder, lesser-visited island known for its rugged beauty and unspoiled landscapes.

Southern Cyclades

In the south, Santorini welcomes visitors with its world-famous caldera views, whitewashed villages, and romantic sunsets. Nearby Anafi offers a peaceful retreat with unspoiled nature and dramatic cliffs. The island of Ios offers a unique balance of lively nightlife and traditional charm, while Folegandros invites travelers to experience authentic Cycladic life amid dramatic cliffs and scenic hiking trails.

The Small Cyclades

Scattered between Naxos and Amorgos, the Small Cyclades offer a peaceful escape from the crowds. On Iraklia, visitors enjoy pristine beaches, crystal-clear waters, and laid-back island life. Schinoussa captivates with its secluded beaches, rolling hills, and quiet villages — perfect for travelers seeking tranquility and authentic island charm.Less

Practical information for your trip

To avoid the crowds and the heat, choose the Cyclades from mid-April to the end of June, especially if you like hiking in blooming landscapes. To enjoy the beaches and swimming without too many people, choose early September to mid-October, the climate is always very pleasant. Good to know: If you leave at this time, be aware that there are fewer boat connections before mid-June and from mid-September.

Greece is made up of many islands and it can be difficult to make a choice. So Ionian Islands or Cyclades, which destination should you choose? If you are looking for green mountain landscapes and wild coastlines, choose the Ionian Islands. If you don't have much time and want to discover the famous white houses with blue shutters? The Cyclades are more accessible and are for you! Our travel experts are at your disposal to advise you and help you plan a trip that meets your expectations.

It's difficult to choose between all these dream islands in the Cyclades. If you want to enjoy the beautiful beaches with your family, choose Sifnos. Your budget is limited? Choose an island like Syros rather than Mykonos. Want nature and culture? Think about the island of Naxos. Whatever your preferences, our experts will tailor their offers to your criteria so that you have a stay in the Cyclades that suits you.
