Cyclades Island Holidays
"Islands defined by exquisite beauty, blue domed churches, sugar-cubed houses & spectacular white-washed villages"
The ‘Cyclades Islands’ are located south-east of mainland Greece. The name of the island group refers to the islands that ‘circle’ the sacred island of Delos. Whilst Mykonos and Santorini are by far the most popular islands within this group, the lesser known islands should not be ignored. Most of the Cycladic islands are peaks of mountainous land, now submerged under the Aegean Sea and the islands of Santorini and Milos are volcanic islands. Given the islands’ geology, most of the islands’ terrain can be hilly and therefore offer some incredible panoramic vistas. You can fly directly to Mykonos or Santorini where there are excellent connections to the other islands. Alternatively, from Athens there are internal flight-connections to the islands of Milos, Syros, Mykonos and Santorini.
