The ferry took only 2 and a half hours to get to Kythnos from Piraeus. It was a last minute destination to get away from the hot and noise of Athens. We stayed only for a weekend but it was proved enough to relax. We left the car above Gaidouromantra and walked a bit to get to the beach. It has pebbles and usually a few people. The wild landscape around is very beautiful and although there are no umbrellas, there are a few trees for shadow. Then, we headed for Kanala to have a meal in the beautiful taverns by the sea. By the way, we visited the monastery of Panagia.
Kythnos has nice villages to see. Chora and Driopida are more traditional, Loutra and Merichas are more tourist. People are happy to help you or show the way, although it is difficult to get lost: there is only one raod in Kythnos connecting the main villages.
