About Tinos
Tinos, the third largest island of the Cyclades, following Andros and Naxos is only 20 mins by high speed ferry from Mykonos but a world away in terms of holiday experience.
Combining amazing folklore, art, unique architecture and natural wealth, Tinos has loyal visitors who love it, but also people who came for the first time and finally stayed forever. Discover its hospitable coves, the well hidden beaches and the wonderful villages of the beautiful and full of secrets and surprises Tinos.
On Tinos, there is a plethora of beautiful beaches suitable for all tastes: sandy beaches, with pebbles, rocks, seaweed or without, either organised: (Kionia, Kolimbithra, Agios Fokas, Kalivia, Agios Romanos), or for the more free spirited (Lichnaftia, Santa Margarita, Agios Petros, Pachia Ammos, Livada, Apigania), accessible either on foot, by car or by boat only.
Enjoy hiking on Tinos thanks to the many paths of the island. A total of eleven are the preserved hiking trails on Tinos with a total length of 120 km. Today, the island is visited by many hikers, especially in the spring when the weather is more suitable for hiking.
On Tinos, nightlife takes on a unique and an ever so charming air of its own and it enjoys a reputation for an emerging culinary scene. Nights on Tinos have the taste of the island’s local delicacies, a great variety of which you can enjoy at its taverns: delicious Tinian cheeses (Tinos gruyere, ‘kopanisti’, ‘volakia’, ‘malathounia’), squabs casserole in red sauce, grilled, baked or fried with white sauce, ‘louza’ (the super tasty spicy cold cut of Tinos), ’stifado’ (rabbit stew), ‘froutalia’ (scrambled eggs) with artichokes or ‘siglino’ (salted pork) or sausage... If you decide on fasting, you’re on the right island for some amazing meatless and dairy-free delicacies: batter-fried sun-dried tomatoes, fried snails and many more... For desert, relish the ‘pasteli’ (sesame seeds with honey) or one of the many exceptional baked sweets of Tinos.
Most of the wine bars are found in an alley in Chora. Driving along the peripheral road, not too far from the Chora, you can always visit an outdoor bar with fantastic view to offer.
