2Tinos — Spiritual, artistic, and surprisingly serene

Tinos offers more than pilgrimages. Art lovers will enjoy visiting marble villages like Volax, where local artisans still practice centuries-old techniques. 

For beaches, Kolymbithra and Agios Romanos are calm and inviting. The culinary scene emphasizes cheeses, pies, and local wines, often prepared in small village kitchens. The island’s villages, with winding streets and blue shutters, invite slow exploration, and cultural festivals fill the summer with music and tradition without overwhelming crowds.
