The harbour still attracts the biggest crowds, especially in the spring time when the island is less busy, the weather is pleasant and the water become slightly warmer. The shoreline is constructed of unique rock formations and golden sands; Kolymbithres Beach is perhaps the most aesthetically interesting area across the coast, which provides unmatched views of the endless azure blue seas engulfing the smaller neighbouring islands. Away from the waters, myriad of historical and cultural sites are dotted about the island, providing a fascinating insight into the history of Paros. Panayia Ekatondapiliani Cathedral is typically at the top of the itinerary for most tourists, and for an extended look at the archaic architecture, head to Parikia Town which is host to many cultural landmarks.
