Discover Tinos
Being the middle ring in the island chain (along with Andros and Mykonos) delimiting the nothern border of Cyclades, Tinos composes along with its adjacent above mentioned islands and Syros a distinct, not only geographic, but also social, historical and cultural unity. The island is quite large (194 sq. km) and has a mountainous relief: the highest point reaches at 727 m, at the peak of Tsiknias, an oblong massif forming the SE ending of the island. An other prominent point is Exombourgo, a granite outcrop rising in the middle of the island backbone.
