Start your day in Parikia, the island’s capital. Visit the Archaeological Museum to explore important finds from Paros’ ancient past, and then walk to the nearby Ekatontapyliani, one of the oldest and most significant early Christian churches in Greece.
Head south to Alyki for a short but fascinating stop. This museum features detailed handmade models of ancient Greek ships, offering a unique glimpse into the maritime history and seafaring tradition of the Aegean.
Continue to Marpissa and visit this small museum dedicated to sculpture. It showcases the work of local artist Nikos Perantinos and highlights the island’s deep connection with marble and the arts.
Drive inland to the picturesque mountain village of Lefkes. Wander through its charming narrow alleys, admire the traditional Cycladic architecture, and enjoy a peaceful atmosphere away from the coast.
End your day at Paros Park, near the Monastery of Ai Yiannis Detis. This natural reserve offers beautiful coastal trails. If you’re feeling active, you can take the hiking path to the lighthouse at Cape Korakas for spectacular views of the Aegean.
