KOLYMBITHRES BEACH
A sandy beach with crystal clear waters, located west of Naoussa. The beach derives its name from the granite rocks, which when filled with water create natural cavities reminiscent of baptismal fonts. Here, you can come by car or boat from Naoussa.
PISO LIVADI BEACH
The tamarisks that grow here offer shade and relief from the hot summer sun. Piso Livadi is a quiet beach with sand and beautiful, clear waters, ideal for relaxation with a good book.

Take a stroll along the picturesque streets of the old town, the Castle, and discover the lovely little shops on the coastal road.

CHURCH OF EKATONTAPYLIANI
It dates back to the 4th century BC but it was reconstructed in 1959 after the destruction it suffered during the Ottoman and Frankish occupation. Located in the northeastern part of Parikia, near the port, Panagia Ekatontapyliani is one of the most important early Christian churches in Greece and the jewel of Paros.
