The authentic Cycladic charm of Kythnos
Travel across Greece across the Mediterranean Sea, board a ferry from the ports of Piraeus or Lavrio, and your summer vacation on the island of Kythnos is just beginning... perfect for a short or long getaway!
The Cyclades are a famous Greek archipelago of picturesque islands located in the central Aegean Sea. Kythnos is one of them, along with Paros, Milos, Santorini, Mykonos, Sifnos, and many others.
Kythnos is beautiful primarily due to its 65 sandy beaches with crystal-clear waters, traditional villages with smiling locals, and, finally, romantic seaside restaurants. Situated near Athens, it is easily accessible from Eleftherios Venizelos International Airport via major ports.
Today, the inhabitants of Kythnos are engaged in tourism, while also pursuing other activities such as agriculture and fishing. They offer visitors the perfect combination of Cycladic landscapes, crystal clear waters, local produce (meat, dairy, fruits and vegetables), and fresh fish caught from their own fishing boats.

Each dive takes place in a new location, so you'll never be bored.
Deep, VERY DEEP, night, drift, as well as calm and relaxing dives in sheltered bays, far from currents, in areas teeming with life.
