The Small Cyclades, also known as the "Minor Islands" , are an archipelago of six small islands to the south of Naxos.

My suggestion:
There aren't many cash points on the islands, so you'll have to withdraw any cash that you might need before you get there.
My review

The Small Cyclades have recently been opened up to tourists but they're still relatively uncrowded and I was able to find many quiet harbours and sandy areas. I have excellent memories of this wild and rocky coast with its beautiful beaches. The island's interior is just as wonderful.

The small Cyclades are great for hiking. If that's what you want to do, I'd advise going to the islands of Irakleia and Donousa. They're beautiful and you can walk around them in a day. If you're looking for the most beautiful coves that you can possibly find while on holiday in Greece, head to Koufonisia. If you're after beaches, my best memories are the ones on Schoinousa.
