Saint Stefanos is a beautiful and picturesque chapel in the area of Galissas built among the rocks. The chapel was built by a fisherman who was saved from the tentacles of a large Octopus after praying to the Saint to help him. It is situated 15 minutes from the main beach from where a small path leads to the chapel. The chapel can also be reached by boat. Agios Stefanos is celebrated on the 19th of August and on December the 26th. Hordes of people visit the chapel to attend the liturgy. Following the liturgy all pilgrims are offered “loukoumi” the sweet local delights as well as mastic from Chios.

A beautiful Greek Orthodox cathedral up from the harbour and 3 min from Miaouli square Syros is an interesting island as 2 religions are practised - Orthodox and Catholic and both have a strong presence although St Nick in Ano Syros is definitely the “poor” - small, with much less adornment. Back to Ermoupolis and St Nick Ploussios had quite a bit of money donated by the wealthy ship owners business and govt to build and adorn after liberation from Ottoman occupation - marble abounds as it does in all of Ermoupolis. grand mansions, opera house and churches. The bishopric for the Cyclades is in Syros as well Beautiful lead light, sculpture of Christ, Icons by renown iconographers and monks from Mt Argos. At the top of stairs under the verandah is a large iron bell - probably from a ship Wonderful bright colors in ceiling - highly decorative in many ways quite showy and beautiful Stands alone in the square with a rather nice garden with some palm trees among the plants and statues on plinths Well worth going in an admiring this church

Best beach in Syros. Fine white sand, shallow waters and at least one excellent taverna two steps from the sea. Could get rather crowded in summer but we enjoyed it quiet in the first days of season after the lockdown.

The Catholic Chapel of Agia Pakou, dominates on the top of the Hill of Galissas. It is a very picturesque chapel that seems to be hovering amidst the colours of the sky and sea, the white and the blue while offering magnificent views to the azure Aegean Sea and the sunset.Access to the chapel is difficult through a rough path and a small flight of stairs. However the magnificent panoramic view will surely reward the visitor.
