The Cave of Antiparos is a spectacular, 85-meter-deep vertical cave on the island of Antiparos, Greece, known for its 411 steps, ancient inscriptions, and a 45-million-year-old stalactite. It has a rich history, having served as a refuge and worship site since antiquity, and was famously used by the French ambassador in 1673, who celebrated Christmas there. The cave features impressive stalagmites and stalactites, though it has also suffered damage and vandalism over centuries.
Kalogeros Beach, located on the serene east coast of Paros near Molos Beach, is a hidden gem known for its natural beauty and therapeutic charm. The beach’s striking red-orange cliffs and crystal-clear blue waters create a breathtaking backdrop, while its natural clay deposits offer visitors a unique DIY spa experience—mix the clay with seawater to create your own rejuvenating mud mask. With its peaceful, untouched atmosphere, Kalogeros is the perfect place to unwind. Just be sure to bring your own food, drinks, and towels, as the beach remains blissfully unspoiled and minimally developed.
Probably the most popular spot on Paros — and for good reason! Barbarossa sits right on the waterfront with gorgeous views and a lively atmosphere that makes for a memorable night out. It’s definitely a scene, so make a reservation if you plan to go. It’s worth visiting at least once for the experience and the energy alone.
