Parikia Bay

You'll find yourself in the main port and capital of Paros, where ferries arrive and the island's bustling heart beats strongest. The bay offers a beautiful coastal route that winds past both organized and secluded beaches, giving you plenty of options whether you want lively beach bars or quieter spots. As Paros's primary anchorage, this sheltered bay puts you right in the center of island life with easy access to Parikia's shops, restaurants, and the famous Panagia Ekatontapiliani church just steps from the waterfront.
