{{Short description|Greek fipple flute}}
The '''souravli''' ({{langx|el|σουραύλι}}; Cretan Greek: θιαμπόλι ''thiamboli'', or φιαμπόλι ''fiamboli''; Cypriot Greek: πιθκιαύλιν "pithkiavlin") is a Greek folk instrument, a type of a [fipple](/source/fipple) flute made of reed or wood. It has a 2 octave [ambitus](/source/Ambitus_(music)). 

A double flute is called a '''disavli''' (δισαύλι), one with no holes and the other one having holes to play the melody. 

In [Cyclades](/source/Cyclades), the souravli is very widespread, especially in the Greek island of [Naxos](/source/Naxos_(island)).
