Syros

Syros island enjoys a privileged position at the center of the archipelago. Siros is the most heavily inhabited island in Cyclades and is 81 nautical miles from Piraeus and 63 from Rafina. It has an area of 84 sq. km. There is very little vegetation, most of it in the central and north areas. There are neither high mountain peaks nor many flat areas. The population is around 25.000. Accommodation is readily available.
The main city of Siros is Ermoupolis witch is the capital of Cyclades Prefecture. A city with traditional houses, squares and big churches. The vast roadstead at Ermoupoli provides a safe and deep anchorage; in the late 19th century it was the first port in Greece and is still the hub of seaborne traffic between the islands.
