Autumn in the Cyclades

In autumn, the sunlight turns softer, the nights grow cooler, and our walks become even more beautiful. The Aegean islands slow to a calmer rhythm; the hills glow in orange-red tones, and the sea grows clearer than ever.

Now is the perfect time to enjoy the gentle autumn weather and travel to the Cyclades, the all-time classic Greek destination.

We’ll walk the scenic trails of Tinos, explore its charming villages, and discover its rich cultural heritage. We’ll swim at the famous beaches of Naxos, taste its celebrated local flavors, and wander the cobbled alleys of Paros, visiting Parikia and the iconic Panagia Ekatontapiliani.

This season, we’ll see our beloved islands from a new perspective—and fall in love with them all over again.

Let’s Go to the Cyclades!

The Cyclades are a must-visit all year round—and with Blue Star Ferries, our island getaways never have to stop. We can travel quickly, comfortably, and effortlessly, keeping the carefree spirit of summer alive.

At www.bluestarferries.com, we can find inspiration for new trips, explore our favorite destinations in detail, and book tickets in just a few clicks.

And now, with Blue Star Ferries’ offers of up to 50%, our next adventure is closer than ever!

If we already love Naxos or want to discover it for the first time, now is the perfect moment. With Stay & Ferry packages for two people—from €81 per person per night—we can enjoy accommodation at Naxos Resort or Galaxy Hotel, including breakfast and return ferry tickets with Blue Star Ferries.

Find the offer that suits you best and get ready for your next escape!
