Paros

Paros has a lively and attractive capital port of Parikia with a maze of winding streets deliberately designed to confuse marauding pirates to give enough time for the locals to take to the hills in times gone by, now lined with shops smart restaurants and tavernas.

There are numerous sandy beaches with safe swimming.

Car hire is a good way to explore, or a boat trip to Antiparos a small satellite island is a great day out.

The quieter resort of Naoussa has a eucalyptus shaded square and a tiny fishing harbour a photographers delight , it has it's own shingle beach with windsurfing out in the bay.

For night life Parikia is your best choice other resorts are low key and based on traditional tavernas.
