The Cyclades: A Holiday Through History
From ancient myths to modern marvels,
explore the diverse heart of the Aegean.

The Cycladic islands form a circle around the sacred island of Delos and get their name from the Greek word 'Kyklos,' which means 'circle.' According to Greek mythology, the enraged Poseidon, God of the Sea, turned the Cyclades nymphs into islands to punish them.

The Cyclades comprise about 220 islands, of which 24 are considered major destinations. These include the well-known islands of Amorgos, Ios, Naxos, and Paros; the jet-setting clubbing capital of Mykonos; and the world-famous volcanic island of Santorini, which is renowned as a romantic getaway.

Full of geographical contrasts and landscapes of unique natural beauty, each island has its own distinct architectural features, always in perfect harmony with its natural surroundings. Visitors will admire everything from underground buildings and rustic stone huts to traditional whitewashed Cycladic houses and even the neoclassical homes built by the aristocracy in Hermoupolis, the Cycladic capital on the island of Syros.

Whether you wish for a cosmopolitan and glamorous touch or a relaxed and serene sailing holiday around islands of pristine beauty and exotic beaches, the Cyclades are an ideal place to start for first-time visitors to Greece.

Amazing Sunsets in Santorini
Experience the world-famous views
from a legendary volcanic caldera.

One of the world's most popular destinations is the crescent-shaped Santorini (or Thira), where Jacques Cousteau was said to have searched for the lost city of Atlantis.

Famous for one of the best sunsets in the world, Santorini owes its unique morphology to a volcanic eruption that created the island's 16 kilometers of multicolored cliffs, soaring over 300 meters from the caldera, the vast crater left by the volcano.

Traditional white houses line the clifftops overlooking the terraced rock. The island attracts visitors who come to enjoy fine dining and sample local wines while gazing at the breathtaking sunsets. This cosmopolitan island combines a vibrant nightlife with beautiful beaches of volcanic sand.
