The Cyclades are an archipelago of Greece located in the South of the Aegean Sea, in the periphery of the South Aegean. The archipelago comprises about 250 islands, islets and islets-rocks. Only 24 islands are inhabited. They are called Cyclades because they form a circle about a diameter of about three hundred kilometers around Delos, the sacred island where mythology gave birth to Apollo.

The Cyclades are characterized by their white houses crushed with sun, their monasteries, their windmills, crystal clear creeks and beaches on a blue background. Everyone can find its happiness there: lovers of nocturnal festivals, enthusiasts of tranquil and wild corners or still passionate about archeology…

The archipelago contains islands with a very different atmosphere. Below is a description of each of the inhabited Cycladic islands, to help you make your choice.
