Review:
The northernmost island of the Cyclades with a rich naval tradition, Andros is lush and green in the south with fertile plains, lush vegetation, and abundantly flowing streams and scorched and barren in the north with mountain ranges and rocky coastlines lined with spectacular white sandy beaches. The capital of the island, Hóra and features an interesting combination of medieval, neoclassical and island-style architecture, narrow cobblestones streets, shady tree-lined squares, and quaint churches. Hóra is home to famous Greek captains and ship owners, and the island has long been the holiday haunt of wealthy Athenian shipping families.
