Paros Named the Best Island in the World
An island that blends tradition, natural beauty, and modern tourism
Paros, an island in the heart of the Aegean Sea, is increasingly mentioned as the most desirable holiday destination for 2025. While Mykonos and Santorini have long been global tourism brands, Paros captures attention with its authenticity and peaceful atmosphere. That is way it earned the prestigious title of the world’s best island according to Travel + Leisure magazine.
The Authentic Spirit of Greece
Unlike overcrowded tourist centers, Paros offers a picture of the Mediterranean that is slowly disappearing. Whitewashed villages with blue windows and doors, cobbled streets draped in bougainvillea. But also its windmills preserved from the past create an atmosphere where the true spirit of Greece can be felt. This island is not designed for mass tourism, but rather for travelers seeking a combination of local culture, natural tranquility, and simple elegance.
Coastline and Sea That Attract Visitors
One of Paros’ main assets is its beaches. Kolymbithres and Golden Beach are famous for their fine sand and turquoise waters, while hidden coves accessible only by boat offer privacy and serenity. The crystal-clear sea is perfect for various activities—from surfing and sailing to diving and swimming in peaceful bays.

Cultural and Historical Heritage
In addition to natural beauty, Paros is rich in historical landmarks. The island is home to archaeological sites, remnants of Venetian fortresses, and old churches that testify to the rich past of this part of the Aegean. Moreover, Paros hosts artistic colonies that bring a modern, bohemian touch to the island.
Gastronomic Experience and Local Wines
A stay on Paros wouldn’t be complete without its local cuisine. Taverns in the port of Naoussa serve fish and seafood prepared in the traditional way, accompanied by wines produced on the island. The combination of a sunset, Mediterranean dishes, and the hospitality of the locals is one of the experiences that make Paros stand out.
