What you can expect

As soon as your boat leaves the cape of Kontou, you will see the first bay, Fykiada, where you can swim. To the left you see the small church of Agios Georgios. The captain will anchor and let you have the first dive and enjoy the silver sand. Later, the boat turns to the east and after passing along Platis Gialos you will reach the bay of Apokofto and Chryssopigi. Here, you can visit the most famous monastery of Sifnos. According to the legend, during the times of pirates, nuns used to live in the monastery. During a raid on the island one nun stayed behind and prayed to the Panagia Chrysoppigi to help her. Panagia then responded to her prayers and split the rock in two, throwing the invaders into the sea. The split rock is a characteristic feature of Chryssopigi.

After Chryssopigi, you head east to visit the bays of Faros and the three beaches: Fassolou, Faros and Glyfo. You will see the old mines and have the chance to explore each of these beaches. Then, you will head straight to the famous castle, Kastro. Kastro was the first capital of Sifnos, a place that was inhabited even during the prehistoric times. Kastro is built on a rock and the construction resembles that of a fortress hence the name. As you leave Kastro, you will head north where you will discover the bay of Dialiskari. Here, you can swim in the crystal clear waters and visit the monastery. After a while the captain will take you back to the marina of Platis Gialos.
