Ageliki Pension is situated in Platys Gialos, which is probably the most famous beach of Sifnos. Built by the sea, the unit is situated at the ideal location for those who want to combine their vacations with swimming in the sea.
PLATIS GIALOS
The name of the place comes from the local speaking phrase ‘Wide Seashore’ and it means a seashore that has relatively big width, a spacious beach. It is one of the busiest beaches of the island and it is considered one of the bigger beaches of Cyclades.
The village has restaurants, hotels, rooms for rent, a municipal camping ground, grocery stores, and pottery workshops were visitors can observe the craft of making pottery in the traditional Greek fashion.
North in the top of the hill dominates the monastery of ‘Panagia Vounou’ (devoted to Virgin Mary) (1813) from where the panoramic view of Platis Gialos is magnificent. Northeast of the village is found ‘Aspros Pirgos’, the most famous from the 57 ancient towers of Sifnos. Southerly in the promontory of Platis Gialos a prehistoric cemetery was discovered. SE in the entry of bight is found the privately-owned and uninhabited islet of ‘Kitriani’, on which the unique building is the Church of ‘Panagia Kipriani’, the oldest churchy monument of Sifnos.
