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.
The ferry port on the island of Syros offers connections to the other Greek islands of Andros, Donoussa, Tinos, Folegandros, Amorgos, Mykonos, Lesbos, Samos, Kimolos, Kalymnos, Kos, Thira, Thirasia, Paros, Ios, Ikaria, Serifos, Kythnos, Milos, Chios, Rhodes, Fournoi, Crete, Patmos, Oinousses, Schinoussa, Astypalea, Naxos, Sikinos, Koufonissi, Symi, Kea, Iraklia, Leros, Sifnos, Euboea, Limnos and Anafi as well as to the ports of Thessaloniki, Kavala, Piraeus and Lavrio on the Greek mainland.

Leros
Vacation without the sometimes perceived as annoying tourist boom you can make and enjoy on Leros. On the 75 km² island in the southern Aegean Sea live less than 10,000 inhabitants. The small, one could say idyllic village of Panteli is considered the most beautiful place on the island. Bathing at Panteli Beach is possible in the small bay at any time of the year. The Agios Isidoros Chapel is the insider tip on an island hike, as well as the crab church of Xirokambos in the south of the island. A day trip with the pirate ship to the small island of Arki is a must for your vacation on Leros. The excursion boat departs from Agia Marina in the morning and heads for different destinations every weekday.
