With a handful of charming, white-washed traditional Cycladic villages, dozens of beautiful beaches and plenty of waterfront tavernas where the food is fresh, simple and delicious, it’s a wonder anyone ever leaves Paros. Miraculously, this beautiful island in the Cyclades has flown a little more under the radar than nearby Mykonos and Santorini.

Paros is one of my favourite Greek islands, with a handful of beautiful villages to stay in and plenty of beautiful spots for embracing the best of Greece.
