Paros is the most popular of the Cyclades islands in the Aegean Sea, and it’s easy to see why. With its dramatic cliffs, sandy beaches and captivating villages, the island is a beguiling mix of natural beauty and traditional charm. The port town of Parikia is the liveliest on the island, with a picturesque waterfront and active nightlife. Head inland to the charming villages of Naoussa, Lefkes, and Drios, and wander the narrow streets, browsing the shops and stopping for a coffee or a drink in one of the atmospheric squares. Don’t miss the chance to explore the island’s beautiful countryside, with its olive groves and rolling hills, or take a swim in the clear blue waters of the Aegean.
