Parga is one of the most picturesque towns on the Greek mainland, a beautiful Ionian resort set on the coast of Epirus opposite the island of Paxos. With its amphitheatre of pastel houses rising beneath a Venetian castle, it is often described as one of the most romantic spots in all of Greece.
The town curves around a pretty harbour and beach, its colourful houses climbing the hillside in tiers toward the imposing fortress above. Below, a lively waterfront of tavernas and cafes looks out over turquoise water and a small island crowned by a chapel, a scene of great charm and beauty.
The surrounding coastline is a succession of beautiful beaches and clear coves, from golden sands to hidden bays best reached by sea. Just offshore lie the beautiful islands of Paxos and Antipaxos, placing some of the finest waters in the Ionian within easy reach.
Ashore, Parga offers excellent cuisine, warm hospitality and access to fascinating ancient sites nearby, including the mythical Necromanteion. Its blend of natural beauty and history makes it a rewarding destination.
With its romantic setting, turquoise coves and Venetian charm, Parga is a highlight of the Ionian coast. Guests can anchor beneath its castle, swim in clear water and enjoy the beauty of one of the loveliest towns on the Greek mainland.
