Aegean Dream's Tinos Guide
Things To See & Do
Δύο Χορια or Dio Choria has arguably the best plateia (village square) on the island, with its incredible views looking directly across the Aegean to Syros and Antiparos, 100s year old trees shading you from the hot sun, tavernas, cafes and soon to be ouzeria.
A stroll around her winding ancient marble paths is a real treat thanks to proud Blue and White stone houses bursting with bright red flowers, friendly locals inviting you to stop for a coffee and beautiful ancient stone outdoor laundries where the water flows freely from the top of the mountain and remains clean and drinkable even to this day.
Find out for yourself why this village is dubbed 'the balcony of Tinos' drawing fashionable Athenians here every summer. 💙🇬🇷🕵🏻♀️

Beach Club, Restaurant and spectacular beach. One of the loveliest beach clubs on the island, its a bit more pricey than some but well worth it. You'll need to head down before 12pm if you hope to secure one of their very highly prized beach beds, or you can perch yourself at the restaurant for a long lazy lunch with intermittent dips in the Aegean just steps from your table.

Lovely long sandy beach on the north side of the island. Home to the very cool Surf School, a beach bar in a Kombi, some of the best full moon parties in Greece and a pounding beach break. Whether you surf or not, this is one of our favourite places to hang during the summer and is a must visit for all travellers.

Marathia Restaurant sits right on the beach with pleasing Scandi influenced decor, sea breezes and a lovely local vibe. Another of our faves!
Great fresh local fish, we love the grilled sardines, local specialties like the house made 'kopanitsi' a cheese matured in gourds similar to a sharp blue cheese, slow roasted local goat, great wine list, desserts and more. Perfect place for a long lazy lunch or sundown cocktail.

Stunning taverna right on the beach at Kionia. Maria and Ilias are the ultimate Greek hosts - super welcoming, caring and friendly. Their food is everything you dreamed of when preparing to come to Greece. Super fresh seafood cooked with great care and respect for the natural flavours, all the Greek classics but with a light and sophisticated touch, extensive menu, reasonably priced - we send all our guests here and everyone agrees, Gi Ouranos Thalassa (world, sky, sea) is THE place to eat not only in Tinos but all of the Cyclades!

Fantastic place to enjoy the freshest seafood with spectacular views of the sea. Fish by the kilo is quite pricey so go for the famous spaghetti marinara, grilled sardines and greek classics if youre on a budget.

Chef Nikos and his lovely wife Katerina are passionate advocates for resurrecting traditional Tinian dishes then bringing them into the 21st century with a dash of creativity and polish. Try the scrumptious veggie pie with its crunchy home made crust, perfectly grilled veg and incredible local cheese. Warm, friendly and full of great knowledge about the history of Tinian cuisine, Nikos is just one of the many reasons why Tinos is famous for its Gastronomy so don't visit Tinos without stopping in to Sta Fys Aera Taverna for a meal and a chat.
