WHAT TO SEE ON SYROS ISLAND
The beauty of Syros is found in its diversity — in its beaches, its culture and its history. Here, you don’t just see landmarks; you feel them. From the cobbled streets of Ermoupolis to the windswept hillsides, Syros is an island that invites you to look deeper.
Ermoupolis — The capital of Syros and the jewel of the Aegean. Its neoclassical elegance stands proudly at every turn. Wander through the winding streets of this town, where whitewashed buildings give way to grand mansions. The Apollo Theater, just moments from Syros Soul, is a masterpiece of Italian Renaissance architecture and a cultural treasure of Greece. Don’t miss the Cycladic Art Museum and the Ermoupolis Gallery, both within walking distance, where the island’s rich artistic legacy comes to life.
The charm of Miaouli Square is undeniable, with its ornate architecture, grand fountains, and cafés spilling out onto the square — a perfect place to stop and reflect. From here, you can take in the stunning vistas of the harbor, watching as the boats gently sway on the calm waters.
A short drive will take you to Kastro of Syros, the island’s ancient fortress perched on a hill, offering sweeping views of the town below and the endless Aegean Sea. It’s a peaceful place to connect with Syros’ past and gaze out over the landscape that has inspired generations.
Syros’ natural beauty is as captivating as its cultural landmarks. For breathtaking views, head to Ano Syros, the hilltop medieval village, where narrow streets twist and turn to reveal panoramic vistas of the surrounding coastline. It’s a place where the soul of the island speaks — in every stone, every breeze and every sunrise.
Whether you’re admiring the architectural grandeur of the town or soaking in the beauty of the beaches, Syros Island is a place that stays with you long after you leave.
