In addition to Paros, Santorini, Mykonos, and Naxos are among the better-known islands that are sure to be on everyone’s bucket list. But did you know that there are also less touristy islands that are just as authentic and charming?

Milos

Milos is a unique island of volcanic origin. In places like Sarakiniko, the snow-white rocks create a picturesque landscape that is often compared to the lunar landscape. Milos has only one beach, surrounded by spectacular cliffs, where you can dive right into the azure-blue water.

For stylish boutiques, cozy cafés, and sophisticated restaurants, head to Plaka. Enjoy a delicious cocktail, and be sure to take a stroll toward Plaka Castle at sunset, where you’ll have a front-row seat to a breathtaking view bathed in golden light. Let yourself be swept away by magical sunsets from your own vacation rental with panoramic views in Paros.

Amorgos

When you disembark from the ferry, you’ll be welcomed to the cozy fishing village of Katapola. Here, you’ll immediately feel the authentic atmosphere and can sample delicious Greek specialties at local taverns. Above the harbor, you can admire the impressive ruins of the ancient city of Minoa. If you’d like to learn more about the Minoan civilization, a visit to the Archaeological Museum in Chora is a must.

Another absolute must-see on this island is the second-oldest monastery in Greece, Panagia Hozoviotissa, beautifully carved into the imposing cliffs. After a day full of culture, relaxation awaits on one of the eleven stunning beaches. Sun, sea, and sand guaranteed! You can also take a refreshing dip at one of our beautiful vacation rentals with private pools in Paros.

Syros

The island of Syros lies northwest of Paros and has a lot to offer. Culturally speaking, Vari is home to prehistoric archaeological ruins. Ermoupoli is an architectural gem from the Neoclassical period, featuring imposing buildings, wide squares, and elegant streets. For those who prefer more intimate spots, the picturesque village of Ano Syros is highly recommended. It’s clustered against the hillside like a natural theater, a layout that once offered protection against pirates.

Syros is definitely a place to enjoy culinary delights. Treat your taste buds to local specialties such as cheese, louza (dried pork), and delicious sweets. For water lovers, Galissas Beach is the ideal spot to enjoy water skiing or canoeing. A view of the tranquil sea? Always a good idea. Discover our amazing vacation rentals with ocean views in Paros.
