KOUFONISIA

KoufonisiaThe older sailors among you might remember them as isolated and "unsuspecting" compared to the rest of the cosmopolitan Cyclades. Today, the Koufonisia of the barren coastline may not be as unknown as they once were, yet they retain that simple, unadorned beauty and introduce themselves to visitors in their own unique way. A piece of earthly paradise lies well "hidden" in Koufonisia. The anxious rhythms and noise of the outside world don’t reach this little corner of the Aegean... According to one version, the name derives from the calm harbor formed by the bay between the two islands and Glaronisi ("Koufos Limin": a windless harbor). The Chora of Koufonisi is a classic Cycladic fishing village, with picturesque alleyways, freshly whitewashed houses, and the iconic white windmill on the left side of the waterfront—a hallmark of Cycladic architecture. At the heart of the settlement stands the Church of the island’s patron saint, Agios Georgios (Saint George). This year’s route of the 29th Cyclades Regatta will also pass through Koufonisia, the "Mykonos of the Small Eastern Cyclades," as many now call it.
