Location

It is just 300m from the sandy beach, on one of the most beautiful islands of Greece, and only a 5' drive from the heart of the island and the port and there is also transportation only 500m away.

Tinos is a Greek island situated in the Aegean Sea. It is located in the Cyclades archipelago. In ancient times, Tinos was also known as Ophiussa (from ophis, Greek for snake) and Hydroessa (from hydor, Greek for water). The closest islands are Andros, Delos, and Mykonos. It has a land area of approximately 194km² and a 2001 census population of 8.574 inhabitants. It is composed of the municipalities of Tinos (town) (pop. 5.203) and Exomvourgo (2.692) plus the community of Panormos (679).

Between 1207 and 1715, Tinos was in Venetian hands. From 1715 to 1821 (From 1821 to 1830 nominally), Tinos was ruled by the Ottoman Empire before joining with Greece. It was known İstendil during Ottoman rule.

Tinos is famous amongst Greeks for: the Church of Panagia Evangelistria, its 80 or so windmills, about 1.000 artistic dovecotes, 50 active villages and its Venetian fortifications at the mountain, Exobourgo. On Tinos, both Greek Orthodox and Roman Catholic populations co-exist, and the island is also well known for its famous sculptors and painters, such as Nicholaos Gysis, Yannoulis Chalepas and Nikiforos Lytras.

The island is located near the geographical center of the Cyclades island complex, and because of the Panagia Evangelistria church, with its reputedly miraculous icon of Virgin Mary that it holds, Tinos is also the center of a yearly pilgrimage that takes place on the date of the Dormition of the Virgin Mary (August 15, "Dekapent avgoustos" in Greek). This is perhaps the most notable and still active yearly pilgrimage in the region of the eastern Mediterranean. Many pilgrims make their way the 800m from the ferry wharf to the church on their hands and knees as sign of devotion. The day also commemorates the 1940 sinking of the Greek cruiser Elli by an Italian submarine on August 15, 1940 at Tinos's harbor.

The island's mineral resources include marble, Verde antico, asbestos and a granite mine near Volakas (also known as Volax).
