he most famous island group in the Aegean Sea, The Cyclades, comprises some of the most beautiful islands in the world! Gorgeous sandy beaches, architecture in white and blue, traditional lifestyle, folk music, warm, hospitable people and barren landscapes with isolated chapels turn a trip to the Cyclades into a lifetime experience. The name “Cyclades” refers to the islands forming a circle (the name in English means: “circular islands”) around the sacred island of Delos. According to the Greek mythology, Poseidon, God of the sea, furious at the Cyclades nymphs turned them into islands. Lying at the heart of a collection of 33 islands that pepper the Aegean Sea from the Greek mainland to the Sea of Crete, the islands of Paros, Naxos and Antiparos offer a wonderful mix of experiences in very close proximity. From the fertile and mountainous terrain of Naxos to the ‘off the radar’ boho chic spaces of Antiparos, this group of islands offers the quintessential Greek island hopping paradise without the excesses of some of their more well-known neighbours such as Mykonos, Ios and of course, Santorini.
