Sightseeing

The most impressive single site on Antíparos is the great cave (daily 10am–6pm summer, 10am–3pm spring/autumn, shut Nov–May, €5), known since ancient times (Arhilohos made the first recorded tour) rarely fails to impress. Only the topmost galleries with their stalagmites and stalactites, 45 million years in the making, are accessible. Lunch at Captain Pipinos, Beach House or Lollo’s Pizzeria are highly recommended.

Antiparos is a very picturesque and tranquil island located just off Paros island. It would be perfect for a day trip or if you have the time, an overnight stay. Ferries from Paros to Antiparos depart almost every 30 min in high season and the trip is about 10 minutes.

Parks & Nature

The closest escape is the Environmental and Cultural Park of Aï Giánnis Détis (parospark.com), a car-free area beginning at the eponymous monastery on the peninsula closing off Náoussa bay on the northwest. Seven well-mapped and -marked hiking trails crisscross the peninsula with its stunning rock formations; the most popular pair of paths, numbered '1' and '2', take you to the handsome 1887-vintage, British-built lighthouse at Cape Kórakas. Using the most direct path from the events amphitheatre above the car-park and snack-bar, allow a minimum 40 minutes round-trip to the lighthouse.

You can have a similar atmosphere to Naoussa, with fewer crowds, at equally photogenic Marpissa, some 9km south and inland, a maze of narrow lanes and arcades. Pródromos village, just across the road, with its arches, little kafenía, bougainvillea cascades and wood-oven bakery, proves equally appealing. From Pródromos, take the old cobbled path west and further inland to Léfkes, the island’s medieval capital, again a stroller’s paradise with a particularly lovely lower square, flanked with cafés for a pause, before continuing on the trail to Kóstos village.

Shopping

Great boutiques for clothing, home items, food in the winding streets of picturesque Naousa. The shopping in Paros is great as it's filled with little markets, higher end boutiques, local Greek designer wear and beautiful jewellery. If you’re looking to find something special to take from your trip, this would definitely be the place.
