The island
Kythnos is one of the western Cyclades, close to Attica and often overlooked on the way to larger islands. From above it is roughly oval but with a heavily indented coast, cut into many small coves with beaches at their heads. The interior is hilly and terraced, and the villages sit inland rather than on the water, joined by a small network of roads.
The two main villages are Chora, also called Messaria, and Dryopida, both clusters of white houses on high ground. Loutra, on the northeast coast, is known for its thermal springs. On the northwest side, the beach at Kolona forms a double-sided sandbar joining Kythnos to the islet of Agios Loukas, one of the best-known shapes in the Cyclades.
A Kythnos map poster shows the island's many coves as a finely notched outline, with the two inland villages as compact knots of lanes. The Kolona sandbar stands out as a thin line of land between two curving bays. It is a quiet island, and the map reflects that: few roads, open hills and plenty of sea.
A narrow strip of sand joins Kythnos to the islet of Agios Loukas, with water on both sides. On the map it forms a delicate bridge between two shapes.
The island's two main villages sit inland on high ground. Each appears as a small, dense cluster of lanes surrounded by open, terraced hillside.
On the northeast coast, the small settlement of Loutra is known for its thermal springs. It sits at the head of a bay on the island's northern shore.

Why Kythnos
Kythnos is often the island of repeat summers for Athenian families and sailors who anchor in its coves. A poster brings back the Kolona sandbar and the drive up to Chora.
Personalise the title, subtitle and coordinates with a beach, a boat name or a year on the island. Classic black and white suits Cycladic whitewash, and Sand gives the coves and hills a sun-warmed tone.
