Loukoumades, though popular throughout Greece, find a special place in the hearts of those visiting Syros.
These golden, fluffy, deep-fried dough balls, drizzled with honey and sprinkled with cinnamon and crushed walnuts, are the Aegean’s answer to the doughnut. A bite of loukoumades, with its sweet, crunchy exterior and soft, airy interior, offers a moment of pure joy, embodying the island’s knack for creating unforgettable confections.
Characterized by whitewashed cubic houses with blue accents, labyrinthine alleys, and picturesque villages, these islands offer an immersive experience into the charm of Cycladic architecture.
