The holiday island of Paros is the place for chilling out and napping on the beach, soaking up the relaxed Aegean vibe. Away
from the beaches, terraced hills climb up to the mountainous interior,
where the island’s famous pure white marble is quarried. The Paros
marble has been famous for millennia, used by the ancient Greek genius
who carved the beautiful Venus de Milo and by the sculptors who adorned
Napoleon’s tomb. Your main base on the island is the port of
Parikia, at the head of the bay on the northwest coast. There’s a
labyrinthine old town to explore, a 13th-century Venetian fort and
taverna-thronged waterfront for sunset drinks and seafood meals.
