Sifnos, being less barren than its neighbours, is probably the most beautiful of the western Cyclades. The island is small -- only 82 square kilometres but it has a population of 20,000 and a number of beautiful Cycladic villages. In antiquity Sifnos was famous for its gold and silver mines which were a mixed blessing for the islanders, bringing them both wealth and trouble. After the fall of Constantinople, Sifnos was granted to the Gozzadini family by the Duke of Naxos, Marco I Sanudo.

Naxos was one of the major centres of the Cycladic culture. Around 3000BC, the main settlements appear to have been near Hora, on the hill of Kastro and at Grotta. The island was later colonised by a party from Karia, led by a son of Apollo named Naxos. Naxos was one of the first islands to work in marble and in the Archaic period produced the lions of Delos and Kouroi statues of increadible size. Indeed, for a period, huge was beautiful on Naxos; in 523BC the tyrant Lygdamis declared he would make Naxos' buildings the highest and most glorious in all Greece, although only the massive lintel from the gate of the Temple of Apollo remains on the islet of Palatia (in Naxos Town).

Serifos is an island with a quaint beauty, preserving at the same time the traditional Aegean character. The whole island is a balcony to the northwest all blue and sunny Aegean. It is a true challenge for vacations, new experiences and unforgettably unique moments. It stands on the west part of the Cyclades Islands, 74 nautical miles from Pireus and it has an area of 75 sq.m. What will surprise every visitor is that Serifos has an 84 km coastline and 12 km of those are sandy beaches.

The islanders of the Cyclades islands are very culture oriented and they have maintained their age-old traditions that have passed down from one generation to another. They are still involved with agricultural work and tend their sheep and cattle on the meadows. However, the younger generation residing in the capital towns is more inclined towards tourism business and has opened restaurants, car rental agencies, shops, studios and apartments, all for the benefit of tourists.

The Cycladic cuisine is very popular as most of the islands have their very own special dish that they serve almost everywhere in each restaurant and tavern. Ouzo, a favourite drink of the Greeks is probably found in every bar and tavern and often generous amounts are given to the tourists. As earlier mentioned, Santorini, Mykonos, Paros and Naxos tend to receive more tourists in the Cyclades.

Santorini is an island with an enchanting history and an even more enchanting landscape. The two popular villages Fira and Oia, are situated on the edge of the caldera on imposing cliff sides and offer spectacular views of the giant caldera and amazing sunrise and sunsets. A perfect island to get married or spend your honeymoon, Santorini offers the most gorgeous view to the sea, its sunken volcano and the famous sunset.

Naxos, equally gorgeous but with another sense of beauty, may not offer view to a volcano, but still it has lovely sunsets. Some of the best beaches in the Cyclades are found in Naxos, while the mainland is filled with mountainous, traditional villages and lush greenery.

The need for unending party atmosphere is fulfilled in the Cyclades in the islands of Mykonos and Paros. Most of the beaches here have nightclubs, bars and beach bars where day and night parties take place. Paradise in Mykonos and Pounta in Paros are the most famous beaches for their crazy nightlife and the party atmosphere. These are the favourite islands for young visitors in the Cyclades, however more calm places can also easily be found all over this popular complex of islands.
