The central island of Paros, is occupied by a range of hills of gently rounded contours. Three bays cut deep inlund - in the west the sheltered Paroikia Bay, with the island's capital und serves as a Yachtcharter base - in the north the bay which shelters the little town of Naoussa und in the east the flat Marmara bay. The island Serifos, north-west of Sifnos, is a bare und rocky island, its hills slashed by gorges; its highest point is Mount Tourlos with 483 m. The ore is shipped ab Koutalas on the south coast. In the season especially Livadi is much frequented by charter yachts; the Chora, towering above Livadi bay, makes this one of the most stunning approaches.

The island of Kythnos lies south-east of Kea und is a rocky und barren island of karstic limestone, that is usually covered in an abundance of colourful flowers in the spring. The coast is much indented - with many beautiful anchorages und ports for a Yachtcharter boat- und for the most part falls steeply down to the sea. The inhabitants live by farming und fishing. In antiquity iron was mined on the island.
