Yacht charter
Last updated on 8 April 2025
Want to rent a sailboat in Greece on one of the most beautiful islands of the Cyclades? Filovent invites you to yacht charter in Syros, a charming island that blends Western culture and Greek traditions with poise.
Considered one of the most important industrial cities of the Cyclades during the 19th century, Syros gradually opened its doors to a Western culture which, combined with an Orthodox community, is adorned with magnificent medieval architecture.by taking a short stroll through the small medieval village of Anos Syros, you will find yourself in the midst of magnificent historical monuments, such as St. George's Cathedral or the Monastery of the Jesuites and Capuchin Monastery, which rise majestically among the whitewashed houses.
Wandering through the narrow streets of the coastal town, you will be transported to a distant world that the buildings, built in a neoclassical style, try to preserve as best they can.
After your little historical tour, consider taking a little detour to the beaches that also make the island so proud and famous. Galissas beach and the small Kini beach are undoubtedly among the must-see beaches, with their fine sand caressed by a sparkling sea.
Your days in Syros
During your stay in Syros, you can combine a historical tour with a unique hike on the island. The historical interlude will take place in the capital, Ermoupoli. Founded in 1820, Ermoupoli is an extension of the ancient town of Ano Syros. Despite its modern infrastructure, the capital has managed to retain its medieval character with its ancient buildings such as the Byzantine church of Agios Nikolaos, located not far from Miaouli Square. Strolling through the Vaporia district, you can admire these 19th-century buildings overlooking the sea and home to town mansions where the party is in full swing when summer returns. Stroll along the city's marble-paved thoroughfares to the Place Centrale, the Théâtre de l'Apollon and the 19th-century Hôtel de Ville.
Several sailing itineraries are available for walkers who want to escape the crowds. Lovers of the great outdoors are invited to explore the north of the island. This sparsely populated region reveals a wild, semi-arid landscape hauled in on the side of the boat by small, steep cliffs offering excellent points of view over the sea.
Which beach should you choose?
by foot, scooter or boat, head to the southwest of the island where the most beautiful beaches of Syros are located. The cosmopolitan beach of Galissa offers a pleasant swim and a lovely walk to the bay of Agia Pakou. For water sports, choose the beach of Finikas. Possidonia beach offers a magnificent view of the nearby deserted islets. Kini beach, on the west coast, will round off your wonderful trip with a magnificent sunset. Do you prefer wild and isolated beaches? Head north, where deserted beaches follow one after another, such as Barbarousa beach, located in the northwest of the island, 4 km from Ermoupoli.
