Koutonissia
Jane Foster's pick is shrouded away between the bigger Cycladic islands of Naxos and Amorgos. "Koufonissia(plural) is comprised of two modest islets, Ano Koufonissi (Upper Koufonissi) and Kato Koufonissi (Lower Koufonissi), which are isolated by a 200-meter ocean channel," she says. "While Kato Koufonissi stays uninhabited, Ano Koufonissi, with its whitewashed Cycladic bungalows, has a humming little network of 366. Local people live for the most part from angling - it is guaranteed that there are a larger number of water crafts than occupants - there are no genuine streets and scarcely any autos, so everybody either strolls or cycles. Before 1980, there was no power either, and it is just finished the most recent decade that Koufonissi has turned into a prominent escape with Athenians looking for an unassuming and reasonable summer occasion. It's quite cherished by yachters as well, who field up their cruising water crafts
Andros
There are magnificent strolls all finished rocky Andros, the most northerly of the Cyclades. John Gimlette, a consistent contributer to Telegraph Travel, reviews a trek in 2000: "We walked along antiquated asphalts limited by huge stone-framed dividers. We staggered into orange forests or sprinkled along streams colonized by reptiles and operatic frogs. At that point we moved into incredible, snap dry valleys, home just to pine martens. At long last, we climbed up through almond forests and mulberry backwoods to the Panachrantos religious community. Once, 300 priests had lived here, however just two stayed, living in a condition of ecstatic ghastliness. They gathered our gifts in a Roman centurion's skull, yet never excited to our essence."
