Lack of beaches but wonderful villages

Sifnos Review:
I went to Greece last August for a few days with some friends of mine and we spent a few days on Sifnos Island.
I had a good time because I was with good company but I can?t say that I really liked the island because I found that its beaches weren?t that good. I have been to various islands of the Cyclades and Sifnos wasn?t my favourite. The camping was great though (the one on the port) and the capital, the town of Apollonia was really beautiful with an architecture typically Cycladic; the houses were small and whitewashed, the alleys white and narrow and purple and bright pink flowers were decorating the walls of the houses. The village of Kastro was also great; it was my favourite place on the island; it is a small village perched on the top of a hill, with white houses, a lot of ancient ruins used to built the houses (unique and unforgettable image) and a tremendous view. If you go there, check the little bar on the edge of the village: it has a great ambience and a wonderful view.
But I think that the island has a lack in beaches. There are not that many and for that reason there are overcrowded.
