Hug the Sea

Paros

The island has some of the best sand beaches in the Aegean.  

Other Paros beaches consist of little marble stones of different colours. Rocky hills make up the coastal landscape. The benefit of the island is the combination of the comfortable conditions for the seamless relax by/in the sea and an easy access to it. Depending on your location, the sea view would include one of Paros's neighbours - Naxos, Ios, Antiparos & others.
