The American travel medium Whereverfamily.com highlights Tinos as an ideal destination for a spring getaway. Specifically, it states that “Tinos, an island in the Cycladic island chain, may not be as densely populated during the off-season months as others on this list, but it is an excellent spring destination in its own right because of its religious and cultural significance.
In addition to the rugged beauty of the landscape, it is home to the famous church of Panagia Evaggelistria, which attracts visitors all year round to its huge steps in the hope of receiving a miracle. The island, a short ferry ride from Athens, is steeped in history and local traditions and hosts festivals throughout the year. In spring, the local flora is in bloom and it's a great time to visit local sites and enjoy the burgeoning gastronomic scene.”.
