Luxury holidays in Tinos

When to go

The annual rush to Panagia Megalochari takes place on 15 August. Beyond that, Tinos tends to be free from heaving crowds and is typical of a Mediterranean climate, making any month between April and October the warmest (and driest) time to visit.

Getting there

• Planes

  Fly into one of Tinos’ neighbouring islands (Mykonos, Syros, Paros or Naxos) before heading to the respective ports and hopping on a ferry to reach Tinos. Mykonos is the closest, with a 20-minute journey between the two islands.

• Automobiles

  If you’re planning on driving around Tinos, rent a car once you land at the airport and drive to the port, where you (and your car) can take a ferry to the island. Tinos is largely made up of dirt roads, so a 4x4 may be your best bet.
