Syros

Elegant and cosmopolitan, Syros blends noble architecture with relaxed island charm. From the moment you approach its neoclassical capital, Hermoupoli, Syros distinguishes itself from the rest of the Cyclades. But from the sea, it offers so much more: secret beaches, caves, and tranquil coves that are perfect for discovery.

Begin your cruise with a visit to the otherworldly Gria Cave, where stalactites and natural rock formations stir the imagination. Drop anchor at Aetos and Varvarousa, two remote beaches where peace reigns and the water is impossibly clear. As you cruise west, arrive at Kini, a small fishing village with colorful boats, seaside tavernas, and a calm bay perfect for families.

Further along, Galissas Beach and Finikas offer golden sand and easygoing summer vibes, while Varis provides a quiet spot framed by rocky hills and blue horizons. End your cruise in Hermoupoli, a town where Venetian grace meets Greek island life. Stroll through marble-paved squares, visit the Apollo Theater, or simply sip a coffee and watch the world go by.

With a perfect mix of urban sophistication and natural hideaways, Syros is an island for those who love variety — and a yacht cruise is the best way to experience its many sides.
