The stunning island of Paros is a dream destination for any holidaymaker. With its blue-domed churches, miles of golden sand and picture-perfect fishing harbours, it's no surprise that it's a popular spot for a break in Greece. The capital Parikia is home to a huge windmill, which stands guard over the town, and the ruins of the Kastro Fortress, a 13th-century Venetian castle. The old fishing town of Naoussa is also a must-see, with its cubic whitewashed houses, colourful doors and window boxes full of flowers, and tiny churches and blue-domed chapels. The island is also famous for its marble, which was used to create the iconic Venus de Milo statue and Napoleon's tomb. For those looking for a more active holiday, Paros is crisscrossed with walking trails, with the Environmental and Cultural Park of Paros offering seven routes to choose from, all with stunning views of the surrounding Cycladic islands.
