  • Sifnos is my favourite island. I have been there 8 times both pre and post season. Kastro is the place to stay - good people, restaurants, bakery jewelry shops. Quiet and can get to know the locals if you stay around. Quad bike all over the island to the various gorgeous beaches. Ruins, and churches.
  • @johnygeo8576
    Visiting Sifnos in 5 days for the first time. Can't wait to see all these beautiful places and breathtaking views!
  • @Busstarvo
    A brilliant, informative, unpretentious guide to Sifnos. A great help to those trying to discover the real Greece. I'd also recommend the fishing village of Faros. Especially for those wanting to relax in a quieter seaside village but with a little life. It's 3 idyllic beaches and the 5 or 6 restaurants make for magical moments. Thank you.X
  • @nickmayala
    This is terrific! When I visited last year, there weren't many YouTube videos covering the island. Miss this island!
  • @edwright4892
    Fantastic guide to a beautiful island! Massive nostalgia. 100% will be returning next June!
  • @IgorIgor-es5nc
    I spent 3 days there in 1989 ,the first time I visited Greece. we stayed in Kamares and I remember we were picked up at the port by a lady who was offering accommodation. we had a room with outside bathroom and we would go for breakfast to a bar on the beach nearby where the song that represented Greece in Eurovision that year was played every morning . it was the only bar on the beach at that time I also remember going to Platis Gialos beach where I had stuffed tomatoes for lunch for the first time It was early September and there were nearly any tourists on the island. Greece was so much different back then
  • @Westlake
    Wonderful video, gorgeous imagery, great information and such a beautiful island. Thank you!
  • In september I am going to Sifnos for the 4th time, now on my own, The first time was in 1987 and the last time in 2001. So I am curieus how it feels after a long time again.
  • Fly to Mykonos and take a ferry to Sifnos about 1h.30 - Milo’s airport is dangerous, flights can’t land with strong Meltemi, Milos is one of the smallest airport in Greece. The best solution is Athens, sleep in Pireo if necessary or stop in Athens city center for a day or more. Advice!!! Came back from the island at least a day before your flight, if it’s too windy ferries will stop. Land in Santorini, stay for a couple of days, take the fast ferry to Sifnos (3h)
  • @margarets.2348
    Great video. Going in September deciding between Kamares and platys gialos.
  • This is really nice to visit . Mykonos is so crowded, noisy and you will never find a spot on the beach to sit on .Sifnos is a better island to visit .
  • @he5946
    Sifnos is our go to Greek island. Consider renting a scooter to get around the island on your own timetable to explore. Two people on one scooter is no problem. We have been visiting here for 15+ years. The secret is getting out.
  • @raykreisel
    This is a super useful video. Thank you!
  • @irinic9546
    Excellent video! Very helpful as I am planning a visit to the area!
  • Thanks for the great intro to Sifnos. I have 3 weeks in Sept/Oct and am looking around for an island for pleasant solo hiking, daily swimming (no loungers necessary, thanks), opportunity to meet locals, minimum tourists, good food and a place to stay by a port or fishing village. I'll be using public transport or walking. This is my 3rd visit to Greece -- been to Chios, Samos, Patmos (twice) and Ikaria. I'd like to find a new "love" that is closer to the mainland for convenience from the airport. I'm also looking pretty seriously at Paros. Thoughts?? I like your videos -- more content, less blah blah.....
  • @paulc2106
    Never been yet. 😲 Definitely doing so now!! 😁 Excellent video 👍🏻
  • @erikaschider8274
    Sifnos, the village Faros, is the paradise of all greek islands.
