Parikia Paros – where to stay in Paros for convenience  

Paros Parikia is one of the most popular places to stay in Paros Greece and a great base for exploring the rest of the island. It is the port town of the island, so anyone arriving in Paros, starts from Parikia. 

Parikia boasts a charming historic part where you can get lost in the narrow alleys amongst whitewashed Cycladic buildings and cute blue and white churches. It has a few beautiful churches including the Church of Agios Konstantinos from where you can watch the best sunset on the island! For the history buffs there are ruins of the Frankish Castle and for the rest, many suer cute cafes, hidden around the historic part of the city and cool boutique shops.

Parikia stretches along the coast and has a few beaches within walking distance of the town. The best beaches are Livadia and Parikia situated north of the Paros ferry port. Parikia is also close to some of the best beaches in Paros a short (up to 30 min) drive away, that are perfect for a day trip. One of my favourite ones is Monastiri Beach. Parikia also has a few cute historic windmills that stand along the coastline.  

Staying in Parikia is super convenient because it will mean you can literally walk from the ferry to your Paros accommodation. Moreover, Parikia has an excellent bus connection with the rest of the island. So, if you don’t want to drive definitely stray in Parikia Greece. The town of Parikia is also excellent for a wide range of amenities such as grocery stores, superb restaurants and chilled bars, tour operators and car & ATV rental shops. Due to its convenience, Parikia is also the best area to stay in Paros with kids and families.

Where is Paros? – Paros Map

Paros is a Cycladic Island amongst Santorini, Mykonos, Milos, Naxos, Ios and other smaller islands, situated southeast of mainland Greece.

How to get to Paros? 

Flights to Paros 

A convenient way to get to Paros is to take an Athens to Paros flight. Paros airport is situated 10 km south of its ferry port and town – Parikia. It’s a super small airport that mostly serves Athens to Paros flights.  

A few airlines serve this connection, including Aegean, Sky Express, and Olympic. Use a flights comparison website such as KAYAK to search for the cheapest flight to Paros.

 

Paros Ferries

The most common way of getting to Paros is taking a ferry either from Athens or, if you’re island hopping in the Cyclades, from another island. Several companies service the route between the Cycladic islands in Greece: Seajets, Blue Star, and Aegean Speed Lines. 

If you want to save some money on the ferries that can be costly, especially if you’re island hopping, I recommend booking your fares way in advance. I always use Ferry Scanner to look for the best tickets. If you’re planning your trip to Paros at peak season, booking your ferry in advance makes even more sense, especially if you’re not very flexible on dates. If you book online, Ferry Scanner offers an extended free cancellation period in case your plans change. 

When searching for tickets, you will also notice that slower ferries can be a lot cheaper, so if you don’t mind a 2-3 hours longer trip, booking a slower ferry can be a good way of saving some money. 

Travelling on ferries is an experience in its own right! Remember to arrive early as the boarding process and loading the vehicles is swift, and boats don’t wait around and usually leave on time. Also, always check ahead of time if your ferry is scheduled to go on time. Ferry services rely on good sea conditions, and cancellations are common, especially in September and October when there are more chances of strong winds.

Ferry Athens to Paros

Athens to Paros ferry is the most popular route and the most frequent service. Ferries Athens to Paros leaves multiple times a day from Piraeus or Rafina ports to Parikia. Depending on the ferry, the journey takes anything from 3 to 5 hours. For ferry schedules and prices, check Ferry Scanner. 

Ferry Mykonos to Paros

A ferry Mykonos Paros is another popular route with multiple ferries scheduled daily. The trip takes from 45 minutes to over an hour, and during summer holidays, ferries get booked out quickly, so consider booking online if you’re travelling during that time. 

Ferries Santorini to Paros

The same applies to ferry Santorini Paros. The journey takes 2 to 5 hours, and online booking is recommended for travels between July and August. 

Ferry Naxos to Paros

Naxos is another superb island worth visiting if you like gorgeous beaches! Ferries Naxos to Paros frequently leave during the day and the journey time is super short – between 30 and 50 minutes. 

Crete to Paros Ferry

How to get around the Greek Island Paros 

Paros Tours 

If you’re looking for what to do in Paros, you’ll be delighted to know that there are tonnes of exciting activities in Paros for all tastes and travel styles. Here are some top pics of the best things to do in Paros:

Full-day Boat Trip Paros on a Sailing Yacht. This tour takes you to some of the hidden, perfect bays and small islands such as Irakleia, Schoinousa and Koufonissia.

Car Rental Paros

If you rather explore the island at your own pace, you can easily rent a car and drive to the best Paros spots yourself. I found that online car rental costs the same as doing it in person on arrival, and it saves you the hassle of shopping around on the island. It also makes sense to prebook the car online if you’re travelling during the peak season. 

I usually use DiscoverCars to search for the best car rental option and always opt-in for the full insurance cover to save myself unpleasantries such as paying an excess fee for damages. 

Car Hire Paros Deals

ATV Rental Paros

Riding an ATV vehicle is also a popular form of exploring the island. ATVs are easy and fun to drive, and they are good at riding off-road. The downside of renting an ATV is they are almost as expensive as car rental Paros and may be unpleasant to drive in windy conditions. 

Buses Paros

Paros has excellent public transport Paros buses frequently run between most popular tourist destinations. If you’re planning to use buses in Paros instead of a car, stay in Naoussa or Parikia, where you get the best connections and also remember that buses are way less frequent off-season.
