Laouti beach is the water-sports lovers’ favorite destination on the island. Enjoy the crystal waters and the sandy shore and rest yourselves in the seaside cafes and restaurants.
The Beach of Agali is located at the most idyllic spot of Chora in Tinos, only a 10 minute walk from the port. The largest and the best organized sandy beach.
Unknown to the most people, an isolated beach covered with pebble, in the east side of the island. The picturesque chapel of Agios Dimitrios seems to decorate the beach.
A secret for the few and very best; it is near Steni at the eastern part of Tinos. As for umbrellas or deck-chairs, these are out of discussion! You can get to the remote, sandy coast with the jade green seabed either via Potamia either by boat.
The road that begins from Triantaros, leads to a tranquil beach at the SE part of the island; this beach consists of white and black pebbles, crystal clear seabed and the obligatory for the shadow tamarisks. 5km separate the beach from the civilization of Chora.
Remote and peaceful beach. It is recommended if you despise of the crowds but it would not be a great idea if you cannot tolerate the etesian winds.
Plain, shallow waters, pails, little buckets and generally family mood, it is ideal for those who are members of the “married” club. At this leeward famous beach you will find taverns and beach bar.
It is one of the biggest beaches on the island, located to the southeastern part of the island next to Agios Sostis. Agia Kiriaki is a quiet sandy beach, semi-organized with facilities for football and beach volley.
Just 5km east of the town of Tinos, there is one of the most beautiful and crowded coasts of the island, with the “eyes” turned right across to Mykonos. Having been awarded several times for the clarity of its shallow waters, it is ideal for the young holidaymakers.
The phrase “wild beauty” suits perfectly to this isolated bay in Pano Meria, with the black sand, fine cobblestone and transparent sea that gets suddenly deep. Those who will choose to traverse the 6km from Steni and drive in dirt road, they will be compensated by the time they have a look at the sculptural, peculiar rocks on the left and the “angry” waves during the etesian winds.
Tinos is the only sheltered harbor in the island. It is a large commercial port with frequent ferries charging in and out.
Kaloni is a village full of flowers and trees. At the narrow streets visitors can find small tavernas and traditional cafes (kafenia).
The Evangelistria Church is also known as Panagia Megalochari which means Virgin Mary with all graces. The church is located on a hill above the Chora of Tinos.
Tinos is an island famous for its traditional ouzo. Visitors can enjoy ouzo of Tinos that it produced in small quantities.
In Pallada Street, there is something for every taste and budget, from kitsch to antique. Shop hours vary during the winter, but most shops and stalls are open continuously throughout the day during the summer, from about 09:00 until well after Midnight.
Xemparko is one of the most traditional cafés of the island. Except coffee and drinks it also offers homemade food.
Saint Pelagia of Tinos, a Greek Nun saint, the one that has helped- through her visions- the discovery of the sacred icon of Panagia of Tinos. This icon is one of the most sacred, venerated icons of the Holy Mother, all over Greece and, maybe the most famous pilgrimage that is dedicated to Her Grace, each year on the feast of Her Dormition on August, 15th.
