Antiparos:
The island lies to the southwest of Paros and is well
known for its famous cave and the exquisite beaches. It
is connected with Paros by small ferries from Pounda (10
min. journey) or by small boats from Parikia (journey
25 min.). The island, called Oliaros in antiquity had
been inhabited since prehistoric times. On the small island
of Saliagos ruins of the oldest known settlements in the
Aegean (app. 4000 bc) were found.

The
only village is built on the northern shores of the island
around the Venetian Castle. In the attractive village
harbour there are fresh fish and fine home cooking. The
most famous site of Antiparos, though, is the cave.
Antiparos is well organised in relation to the needs of
the modern day tourist with all kinds of shops and a lively
night-life, but also maintains the relaxed life style
and the vivid Cycladic color.
