Páros & Antiparous, Cyclades Islands
Paros is one of the largest islands in the Cycladic archipelago. It extends west of the island of Naxos, from which it is separated by a canal, near the island of Antiparos. It was famous throughout classical antiquity for the marble it exported.
Páros has a little of everything you'd expect from an island in the Cycladic archipelago - whitewashed villages, blue-domed churches, golden sandy beaches, fishing ports overlooking the tavern tables, and lively bars and cafes . The landscape may not be the most dramatic, with its modest 771-meter-high Ágii Pándes summit, but from the ring road the sea views over dozens of neighboring islands are unbeatable.
