Tips for the Syros–Paros Ferry
- A lightweight drybag or small tote is handy for beach days on islands – it doubles as your day bag on short crossings when you leave your main bag at the hotel.
- Bring a portable power bank rated at least 10,000 mAh; charging sockets on ferries are not always reliable, and island power cuts are not unheard of.
- In Paros, the charming fishing village of Naoussa on the north coast is the best place to eat fresh seafood at family-run waterfront tavernas. The main town of Parikia has an impressive Byzantine cathedral built from the marble of ancient temples, and the island’s beaches – particularly Kolymbithres with its sculpted granite rocks – are among the most striking in the Cyclades.
