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.

Symi
The Pearl of the Aegean - that's how the 65 km² island on the far edge of the southeastern Aegean Sea likes to be called. Rhodes is one hour away by boat. Symi is mainly a destination for day tourists from Rhodes. For them, a visit to Panormitis Monastery as well as the listed harbor is a must. The monastery offers a wide panoramic view and as a former place of pilgrimage it is a historical sight. The fishing village Pedi as well as one or the other trip with excursion boats to island places, which you cannot reach otherwise, also belong on your Symi agenda. Keyword: the bays of Nanou and Disalona.
The ferry port on the island of Symi offers connections to the other Greek islands of Agathonisi, Rhodes, Tilos, Kasos, Leros, Kastelorizo, Lipsi, Karpathos, Nisyros, Patmos, Kalymnos, Kos and Astypalea, as well as to the ferry port of Piraeus on the Greek mainland.
