CYCLADES
The islands of the Cyclades, with their whitewashed houses drenched by the Greek sun, are the country’s most beautiful ornaments, placed at the centre of the Aegean Sea. They derive their name from being said to “circle” the island of Delos – birthplace of Apollo. Around Delos, three of the best-known Greek islands, are situated, namely Mykonos, Syros and Paros, while further south stands the stunning volcanic island of Santorini or Thira.
All four of the aforementioned islands have airports serviced by domestic flights from Athens and Thessaloniki, while Mykonos and Santorini receive frequent direct flights from abroad during the summer. Being a justifiably popular group of islands, they form the backbone of the Greek ferry system in the region. High season connections with fast modern ships and hydrofoils from Piraeus and Rafina are so frequent that many visitors have embraced the habit of “island hopping” in order to get the best of each island and enrich their collection of images from Greece.
Other Cycladic islands such as Kea, Kithnos,Tinos, Naxos, Serifos, Sifnos, Milos, Andros, Amorgos, Folegandros and many others smaller ones are definitely worth a visit as a post conference trip.
The conference infrastructure of the islands and their perfectly preserved cultural heritage classify them as the ideal destination for events of any magnitude, while famous establishments in Tinos, Santorini and Milos give organizers an unbeatable comparative advantage on a european and world-wide scale.
