Kimolos island

Traveling with M/S DOXA II to Kimolos which is an island in the Aegean Sea, you will find out that it’s at the south-west part of Cyclades and has distance of 1,6 km north-east of Milos. Kimolos has about 769 inhabitants and includes administratively the uninhabited islands Polyaigos, Agios Georgios and Agios Efstathios.

For the history knower an older name of Kimolos was Echinousa. Its current name originates from Kimolos, the person who according to ancient Greek tradition was the first to establish on the island. During the Middle Ages it was occupied by Venetians and named Argentiera. It was united with Greece along with the rest of Cyclades after the Greek independence from the Ottoman Empire in 1829.

Antiparos island

Choose as another destination Antiparos and yacht with M/S DOXA II to that island which belongs to the island group Cyclades in the Aegean Sea. In the modern eparchy of Naxos, separated by a strait from the west coast of Paros: the trip with M/S DOXA II is just ten minutes from Pounta, a little port on Paros and about twenty minutes from the main port in Paros, Parikia. The island's seashore is 57 kilometers long, but it's not big in population: there are approximately 900 residents in Antiparos, most of whom live in Kastro, a village on the north coast, and are employed in agriculture and fishing.

Yacht with M/S DOXA II to the south coast of the island Antiparos you have the possiblity to find a stalactite cavern, which is the largest tourists attraction there. It is reached by a narrow passage broken by two steep and dangerous descents which are accomplished by the aid of rope-ladders. The grotto itself, which is about 150 feet by 100, and 50 feet high (not all can be seen from any part, and probably some portions are still unexplored), shows many remarkable examples of stalactite formations and incrustations of dazzling brilliance. In the entrance of the cavern you find an inscription recording the names of visitors in ancient times. The marquis de Nointel (ambassador of Louis XIV to the Porte) was the first traveller of modern times whose visit is recorded, who descended it with a numerous suite and held high mass there on Christmas day 1673. Accessible areas of the cavern walls are covered with graffiti, some of them beautifully lettered, recording visitors during the 18th and 19th centuries: these include royalty and other well-known tourists alongside geologists and engineers.

There are plenty of beaches on the island which you can examinate with M/S DOXA II, but the biggest one is Psaraliki. Two beaches are called Psaraliki, the first and the second, but the first one is the biggest and that's where the most tourists go swimming, but you can choose to stay on board of M/S DOXA II and relish the greek sun and the cristal water over there. Between the beaches you find "Fanari beach club" and beyond the second lies "Time Marine beach club" There are also other beaches and restaurants on the island, which you can explore if you like to spend with M/S DOXA II some more time or days there.

The square in Antiparos is the central meeting place, and this is where most of the night clubs and bars are situated.

Tinos island

Tinos is a Greek island located in the Aegean Sea and in the Cyclades archipelago. The island Tinos was also known as Ophiussa and Hydroessa. The closest islands to Tinos are Andros, Delos, and Mykonos.

For those interested in historic events, note that between 1207 and 1715, Tinos was in Venetian hands and from 1715 to 1821, Tinos was ruled by the Ottoman Empire before joining with Greece.

Sail with M/S DOXA II to Tinos which is famous for the amongst Greeks: the Church of Panagia Evangelistria, its 20 or so windmills, about 1000 artistic dovecotes, 50 active villages and its Venetian fortifications at the mountain, Exobourgo. On Tinos, both Greek-Orthodox and Catholic populations co-exist, and the island is also well known for its famous sculptors and painters, such as Gyzis, Chalepas and Tsokles are also well known on the islands for it.

The island is located near the geographical center of the Cyclades island complex, and because of the Panagia Evangelistria church, with its reputedly miraculous icon of Virgin Mary that it holds. Further note that Tinos is also the center of a yearly pilgrimage that takes place at the date of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary (15 August, known in Greek as "Dekapentavgoustos" = 15th of August). This is perhaps the most notable and still active yearly pilgrimage in the region of the eastern Mediterranean. Many pilgrims make their way the 800 metres from the ferry wharf to the church on their hands and knees as sign of devotion. The day also commemorates the 1940 sinking by the Italians of the Elli, which was participating in the festivities that year.

Yacht with M/S DOXA II to the island Tinos and enjoy your holidays not only with the unforgetable sun and sea also with the unique expierence, which you will life on that day.

Tinos has a unique and varied landscape and also many beaches, just to name a few: Kionia, Agios Yannis O Portos, and Agios Sostis. On the deck of M/S DOXA II you will see Tsiknias which is the highest mountain on the island at 750 meters and hides the quaint village of Livada. The mountainExobourgo is quite distinct, and unlike its more rounded Cycladic neighbors, has a more jagged appearance that is more home in the Alps. The area around Volax is a surreal and very unusual landscape with giant boulders some the size of multistory buildings. You will find the village of Volax at the center of this amazing landscape. To the west, the mountains surrounding Pyrgos are full of some of the most beautiful green marble in all of Greece. Just travel with M/S DOXA II to Tinos and feel the greek tradition.

Kythnos island

Sail with M/S DOXA II to Kythnos, a Greek island in the Western Cyclades between Kea and Serifos. It is 56 nautical miles from the harbor of Piraeus.

Kythnos is about 100 square kilometers in area and has a coastline of about 100 kilometers, an ideal destination for yachting experiences. It has more than 70 beaches, most of which are only accessible from the sea. Of particular note is the crescent-shaped isthmus of fine sand at Kolona, where sunbathers may relax with the sea lapping at both sides of the beach.

The island has two significant settlements, the village of Messaria or, known locally as Hora, and the village of Driopis, also known as Horio. The villages are very picturesque but in different architectural styles.

Another coastal settlement you should visit with M/S DOXA II is Kanala, on the east side of the island, and many of the larger beaches are settled by a handful of residents. Aghios Dimitrios, at the southern tip of the island, is a mostly modern settlement, with small vacation houses dotting the hillside above a wide beach that is dotted with sea daffodils – a view you must enjoy from the deck of M/S DOXA II. On the northeast end of the island lies Loutra, a village famous for its thermal springs, which are said to have curative properties, and the visitors may soak in its marble tubs for a modest fee.

The port town is called Merihas, and its population significantly fluctuates during the year.

Throughout Kythnos, drylaid stone walls delineate individual parcels of land

In 1207, Kythnos came under the rule of the Frankish overload Marco Sanudo, and it remained in Venetian hands for 400 years. During this period, it was known as Thermia, a name derived from the hot mineral springs occurring on the northeastern coast at the village of Loutra. These medicinal baths were renowned at least since Roman times and were a fashionable spa and resort area.

Due to its proximity to Athens, Kythnos has become a fashionable setting for vacation homes, in addition to being an accessible destination for foreign visitors. Besides its numerous beaches and picturesque villages, it also is the site of one of the largest caves in Greece, Katafiki Cave in Dryopida. This cave, first visited in the 1830s and described by the geologist Fiedler, has unique "schratten" or rock curtains, as well as speleotherms. It was the site of an iron mine until 1939 and has now been developed as a tourist attraction.

Kea island

Take M/S DOXA II and travel to Kea, an island of the Cyclades archipelago, in the Aegean Sea, in Greece. It is the island of the Cyclades complex that is closest to Attica. Its climate is arid and its terrain is hilly. Its capital, Ioulis, is inland at a high altitude (like most ancient Cycladic settlements, for the fear of pirates) and is considered quite picturesque. Sail with M/S DOXA II to the port of the island Korissia, and spend leiasure vacation time outside the fishing village of Vourkari. Kea is a convenient destination for weekends and yachting trips.
