The island of Andros is the northernmost and second largest of the Cyclades islands group. Andros ferry port is based in Gavrio on the west side of the island and connects with numerous ports in the Cyclades region with sailings operated by some of the biggest ferry companies in Greece. Andros island itself is an amazingly unique island waiting to be explored. With its high mountains, deep green and fertile valleys, water falls, rivers, farmland, fig trees, olive trees, capers, wild flowers, not to mention sandy beaches with crystal clear sea waters, Andros is the ideal place for relaxing and enjoyable holiday.
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.
