Cyclades with Mykonos and Santorini
Cyclades with Mykonos and Santorini Travel Guide
The Cyclades islands compose a quintessential, pristine Mediterranean archipelago, with ancient sites, droves of vineyards and olive trees, and stark whitewashed cubist houses, all seemingly crystallized in a backdrop of lapis lazuli. The six major stars in this island constellation in the central Aegean Sea -- Andros, Tinos, Mykonos, Naxos, Paros, and Santorini -- are well visited but still lure with a magnificent fusion of sunlight, stone, and sparkling aqua sea. They also promise culture and flaunt hedonism: ancient sites, Byzantine castles and museums, lively nightlife, shops, restaurants, and beaches simple and sophisticated.
