Sifnos, Greece

Sifnos

Kamares, Sifnos

If you are looking for that perfect Greek island with a balance of beautiful beaches, low-key nightlife, white Cycladic villages, low-impact tourism and maybe the best food in the Cyclades, then look no further than Sifnos, where I have been coming for over thirty years. Just three hours from Athens by High-speed or five hours by normal ferry, Sifnos is easy to get to and you may never want to leave. Most people who visit Sifnos return again and many make it a yearly sojourn, while some go as far as to buy houses here and call it home. With easy year round connections to Milos and Serifos, and summer connections to Santorini, Mykonos, Paros and Naxos it is the perfect island to include in your island-hopping itinerary. Start with my Introduction to Sifnos and then visit the towns, beaches and other pages of my favorite Greek Island using the links below. If you have any questions you can e-mail me. If you like this page please share it with your friends. - Matt Barrett
