was slow cooked lamb with eggplant, Harissa and Greek yogurt. Simply put, the culinary highlight of the trip and a meal we’ll remember for a long time. How do you find where you are going when there are no addresses on the island? On Paros, you just try your best. It also really doesn’t matter when you’re surrounded by some of the best restaurants, shops, and nightlife that the Cyclades has to offer and there’s no shortage of options. According to many that we spoke to, while the tourists opt for Santorini or Mykonos, “real Greeks” choose Paros for it’s quiet, quality and comfort. Nestled into a portside Airbnb in Naoussa, we allowed ourselves the luxury of sleeping in that morning. We started our day with a short walk to Almond for brunch.
Billed as a “Living Well Workshop”, the café is indicative of many businesses on the island that offer more than just a meal, but look to provide you with a true experience. You can indulge in traditional brunch fare, power bowls, smoothies or take part in yoga and nutrition classes designed to nourish your soul. Spend the day wandering through the alleyways, tucking into little boutique shops but make sure you find time to cool down at Kolymbithres Beach. The granite rocks resemble a lunar landscape and visually, are quite different than other beaches on the island. The unique beauty of the Kolymbithres beaches attracts a huge number of tourists so get there early to make sure you can stake a spot.
