Ferry from Syros to Sikinos
The ferry journey from Syros to Sikinos links two very different corners of the Cyclades: lively Syros, with Ermoupoli’s elegant waterfront and hillside streets, and peaceful Sikinos, an island of dry-stone walls, bright chapels and wide Aegean views. Leaving Syros feels like a gentle shift from the cosmopolitan capital of the Cyclades towards a quieter, more remote island rhythm. Ferries arrive at Alopronia, Sikinos’ small harbour settlement, from where the island’s compact scale and unhurried character quickly become apparent. Above the coast, the traditional Chora clings to the hills, offering the whitewashed lanes and open horizons many travellers seek in the Greek islands.
