SifnosÂ
Sifnos is a small island in the Aegean Sea, south of mainland Greece. It has a population of about 4,000 and it is one of the Cyclades islands. Sifnos was not very popular as a tourist destination until recently because there were no big hotels or luxury resorts on the island. But nowadays it attracts many tourists from all over Europe because it offers beautiful beaches with crystal clear waters that are ideal for snorkeling and diving, picturesque villages with narrow streets full of flowers and fruit trees, traditional taverns where visitors can taste delicious local food.
There’s over 100 km to explore in here. The trails will take you to quaint chapels, temples, villages, farmhouses, and more.Â
