Details About Sifnos

Destinations » Mediterranean » Mediterranean - Eastern » Sifnos


A surprisingly green island for the Cyclades, Sifnos offers a good variety of peace and quiet and things to do. Even though it is a popular island, both amongst Greeks and foreigners, it has kept its originality and is resisting the commercialisation many other islands have suffered.
