Description:
Lying immediately to the south of Andros, separated only by a narrow strait, Tinos is a green, mountainous, wooded island, extensively cultivated into terraces. It is dotted with small villages. Pyrgos, Panormos, and Volax are all “must visits” with Ormos Isternia an excellent lunch stop.
The town of Tinos is the main ferry port and capital, and twice a year (25 March & 15 August) sees the arrival of many sick pilgrims of the Orthodox faith, who visit the shrine in the church above the town looking for a cure.
