#1 Agios Andreas: Sifnos from above<\/h2>\n

With an area of approximately 74 km\u00b2, Sifnos is one of the smaller Greek islands. The island’s terrain is rugged, featuring steep slopes in the west and gentle valleys in the east. For a Cycladic island, Sifnos is surprisingly green, which makes it \u2014 alongside Milos \u2014 the most scenic island in the Western Cyclades<\/a> in our opinion.<\/p>\n
