Relax, sun, sea and a lot of history.

Antiparos is a small Greek island located in the heart of the Cyclades archipelago, less than 1 nautical mile from the best known Paros.
Once upon a time on the larger island, it was considered a simple appendix, or a place suitable for a daily excursion.

Today, this small island has managed to carve out a leading role. So much so as to be chosen as a place for an alternative holiday to mass tourism in Paros.

Wonderful beaches. Ancient mysterious caves. Historical places, which tell of ancient civilizations. Atmospheres and landscapes in perfect Cycladic style, with typical white and blue houses and narrow and paved streets. The courtyards and flower gardens with wonderful bougainvilleas. All this, preserving the genuineness and typicality of the past.

The kitchen, is another flagship, with fresh and genuine products. There are many activities to do, of course, a relative tranquility that is impossible to enjoy in the nearby Paros. Here, the many reasons, why today thousands of tourists choose this small island to spend their holidays.

By plane, or ship, you must always stop at Paros and, from the latter, reach the small neighboring island by sea.

Paros International Airport, it is connected with direct seasonal flights, with different Greek and European destinations.

From the airport, you can reach the capital by bus. The ticket costs 1,80€ per person, and you can buy directly on board. Once you reach Parikia, you can take a boat directly or reach Pounda.
