Yacht Charter Syros

Ermoupoli, the capital of Syros, and the Cyclades, is a beautiful city with much to offer. It is historically significant as it was once the main port of Greece, a hub of shipbuilding activity and a commercial, naval and cultural centre. Ermoupoli or ‘City of Hermes’, the god of trade, also played a major role in the Greek revolution against the Ottomans.  

It is now a peaceful town full of neo-classical mansions, squares and grand churches of a bygone era. There are a number of good museums to visit and great tavernas to sample the local food.

Miaouli Square is one of the most beautiful squares in Greece and is known for its tall palm tree where you can enjoy a coffee or meal in its shade. All of this can be discovered when you pick up a charter yacht from Ermoupoli, Syros.

Syros is centrally located in the Cyclades island complex and so is one of the best starting points for a sailing holiday in the Cyclades. Andros, Tinos Mykonos and Delos are to the north east; their stark, compelling beauty is even more impressive when looked at from a boat. Sail south to discover the rest of the islands, such as Paros, Naxos, Ios and Santorini. Even in the busy summer season, remote anchorages are found.
