Ormos Pethamenos
Ormos Pethamenos offers you a secluded anchorage on Kythnos' coastline, away from the island's main tourist areas. This quiet bay provides shelter while keeping you close to the authentic Cycladic charm that makes Kythnos special - you're just a short distance from traditional villages like Hora and Dryopida with their rustic local cuisine. The bay serves as an ideal base for exploring this budget-friendly island that locals affectionately call Thermia, located conveniently in the Western Cyclades between Kea and Serifos.
