The shoreline is emblazoned by sparse beaches that stretch along the landscape, providing a picturesque walking trail when embarking on a late evening stroll. Whilst around the coast, it’s well worth heading to the numerous tavernas offering fresh seafood and drink amid a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Looking out across the horizon as you sip on a cocktail is one of the most blissful experiences of Greece. The laid back atmosphere usually only lends itself to a quick visit, so should you be longing for a bit more vibrancy, boat trips to the nearby volcanic islands are available.

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.
