Travel & Stay
Everything you need to know about travelling to and staying in Paros
Travel
Paros is an idyllic island in the Cyclades, known for its beaches and traditional villages, which you can reach by boat or plane. It is a slightly hidden-away island, unspoilt and beautiful. The most common way to get to Paros is to fly to Athens, Santorini or Mykonos and then continue your trip with a ferry.
By Flight…
If you fly into Athens, you can jump on a connecting flight from Athens direct to Paros with Olympic Airways or Aegean Airlines. The duration is approx. 30 minutes.
The Paros Airport (PAS) is located 20 kilometres southwest of Parikia, in Voutakos Agkairias.
By Ferry….
The Cyclades islands are well connected by ferry and so we also recommend searching for flights to Mykonos or Santorini which both have international airports.
Mykonos - Paros: From 40min to 2h, depending on ferry.
Santorini - Paros: From 2h to 3h, depending on ferry.
To compare ferry times and prices use Direct Ferries or Ferry Scanner or alternatively book direct with the ferry companies.
You can also take the ferry from Athens to Paros (approx 3.5 - 5 hours), either from Piraeus port (55’ by car from the airport) or Rafina port (40’ by car from the airport).
All ferries arrive at Parikia Port, it’s a 20-minute drive to Naoussa. The bus is super easy & cheap, alternatively, you can arrange a Taxi or Car rental from the port.
By Taxi….
Athens - The easiest way to get around Athens, and especially back and forth from the airport and port of Piraeus. CatTaxi company Or Uber.
Paros - Taxi Station Parikia (port in Paros): +30 22840 21500. Taxi in Naoussa/Paros: George (+30 6944221645) or Pantelis (+30 6978717864) - use the name Wedding Paros when booking.
By Car…
In most cases, you can pick up a car at the ferry ports but we recommend booking ahead through a quick google search.
In Paros, we recommend Galanakis, Motorland or Spyrou.
