Paros 'has something for everybody'

Island News (Published: 01 October 2009)

Those considering a holiday in a Greek island destination may want to take the advice of a woman who has kept returning to Paros since her first visit in 1990.

Yvonne Judge described in the Irish Times how a few days in the "simple heaven" of Naoussa seduced her and she has rarely wanted to go elsewhere, as nowhere was "ever more fun" for her.

The island has something for everybody, she noted.

"If you want louder pubs and rowdier crowds, go to Parikia … for an adult holiday, a fish-foodie paradise or a few nights in the coolest bars ever, go to Naoussa."

Ms Judge said another good thing about this destination was that no development had "got out of hand" and the village retained the same charm as it did 17 years ago.

Paros is considered something of an artist's hub and is famous for its translucent marble, which has been used to create many of the pieces in the island's museums.
