Their gyros are 10 cents more expensive at €2.90 each, still very affordable and filling! We both think that Allas Souvlaki is better, the meat is juicier. We wanted to compare to the famous O Kargas that we had the night below. Once we got back to Naoussa, we went back to our hotel to relax and came out again for dinner which we tried out Allas Souvlaki for their gyros.

Buses were frequent between the two towns every 30-40 minutes at peak times and an hour at other times. Surprisingly, not many tourists stopped for photos on this spot.Īfter the photos, we walked to the bus station (right next to the port) to wait for the next bus back to Naoussa. A lot more tourists on the main shopping street so we had to wait for people to get out of the way. This is probably my favorite spot, you have to look back when strolling along the shopping street to notice this church as the backdrop. After the quick lunch and used the restaurant’s toilet, we went back to a few spots in the old town for photos as the lighting is better by the early afternoon.
#PAROS IN SEPTEMBER PLUS#
The total for our lunch plus drinks was €29 and we tipped €3. I ordered the chicken curry while Jason ordered prawns & mango curry.īoth were decent for a Greek island with not many Asian restaurants nor tourists. I picked this restaurant because I saw they have curry on their menu after days of having pasta, I was craving white rice. As we walk past the port, there were two huge Blue Star ferries docked.Īfter checking out the supermarkets, we walked back into the old town to have our lunch at Mana Mana where it was very busy. Unfortunately, none of them has it and only one market sells the small box juice of mango mixed with other fruits. It was too early for lunch so we decided to browse the supermarkets that we passed by early on when we walked to the post office to see if they have mango juice. Parikia’s old town is compact as well so we walked from end to end, even the side streets, and made stops for photos in less than 2 hours. Quite a creative location to build a garden!
#PAROS IN SEPTEMBER FULL#
Luckily, we carried our wide-angle lens with us so we were able to capture the full church and bougainvilleas. Then, we were back to the main street again.Ī surprise hidden gem we found on the side street of the gelato shop: a cute little church with bougainvilleas. We found this tree with lots of guava fruits. The narrow street is covered with bougainvillea petals. We ventured into the more residential area through narrow cobblestone roads. The bougainvilleas formed like a door to this side street: The main shopping street is filled with souvenir and clothing shops. There are quite a few little churches within the old town like the one below, it was hard to get a full view of its blue dome.

The Venetian Castle doesn’t look like a castle at all located right in the old town. We found this interesting bike made of wood outside a hotel. Bougainvilleas were scattered here and there where we stopped for photos. It was fun to find hidden photo spots away from the main shopping street. We don’t have any points of interest to visit so we just navigated on our own without a map. The old town in Parikia is like the opposite of Naoussa’s it has more souvenir and clothing shops than restaurants. We first walked to the post office so Jason can send the postcard to his friend and then to the old town. We saw the huge watermelon and wish we have the room and tool to eat it at our hotel room LOL. There were locals selling fruits and vegetables right across the street from the ferry port. We arrived Parikia, it was busy with both locals and tourists. He was speaking Greek to them so our guess was right, Paros is very popular among high school/college students for summer vacation.
#PAROS IN SEPTEMBER DRIVER#
On the way, there were more high school/college looking people waiting at the bus stop with their luggage but the driver had to tell them to wait for the next bus as ours was so full. There were people standing a lot of young passengers had luggage so I am guessing they were heading to the ferry to go to another island or back home. Unlike the bus to Lefkes, our bus was full and I should say overpacked. Day 3 in Paros, we took the bus to visit Parikia, the capital and main port of Paros.
