Syros
The name of the island originally means something like "rocky" - and that aptly describes what awaits you on Syros. In addition to the rugged natural formations, the island is home to the administrative center of the Cyclades. Accordingly, it is busy here all year round. Here you will especially meet Greeks from the mainland; international tourists are rather less to be found here. The cultural side is not neglected here either, and churches, a theater and a library are among the most important places on the island. If you are looking for beautiful beaches, you will find them on the southern and western side.

Andros
The northernmost and second largest island of the Cyclades is Andros. Despite its population of about 10,000, it is not as heavily visited by tourists as some of the other islands in the area. And this, although here so many things are different. Among other things, the vegetation is more lush and the places are very well maintained and "dressed up". This is primarily due to the wealth of the shipowning families who are at home on this island and ensure that nothing falls into disrepair here. As a tourist, you have the opportunity to go on numerous hikes or take advantage of one of the many water sports on offer.
