SYROS,
CYCLADES, GREECE
Syros is a treasure waiting to be discovered. Sandy beaches, wonderful
sunsets, colorful streets and full of history. Like Tinos island many
of the visitors are Greek rather than the international mix on the more
popular islands. They come to sample the many attractive coves, varied
landscape and excellent seafood. Easily explorable, Syros is a rewarding
and understated island with some fine Italiante mansions and traditional
farms. Vist the Vaporia area of Ermoupolis town that will remind you
of Venice itself, then vist Galissa Bay with it's wonderful uncrowded
sandy beach, it would also be worth staying on Galissa beach just to
watch the sunset. Ermoupolis is a town worth discovering, winding streets,
old mansions, grand churches and more. Vist the main square with it's
mansion buildings and numerous cafes, then in the evening sit by the
harbour numerous cafes and restaurants to do a bit of people watching,
then late evening why not try your luck at the Syros Casino
Syros island - an understated island that deserves a lot more visitors.
