The Greek island of Σύρος is located in the Cycladic group in the sparkling Aegean Sea. Sitting just 145 km from Athens and 150 km from Santorini, the island is very central to all of Greece.

This beautiful island is easy to get to and enchanting to explore. The historic capital, Ermoupolis, is a treasure trove of cathedrals, wonderful architecture, shopping and cafes. The lifestyle of this island is not limited to tourists, it is an authentic Greek island acting as the capital of the Cyclades.
