Greek Island Honeymoon Experiences
Mykonos Island
Mykonos is one of the world’s legendary cosmopolitan destinations, offering service excellence, magnificent natural beauty and a lifestyle culture that attract all manner of international guests, from couples seeking a romantic hideaway, to dedicated clubbers, celebrities, and of course those who return year after year out of an enduring love affair with our island.
Mykonos Nightlife & Clubs
To experience the island’s legendary club life, take a short journey off the coastal route or by boat to Cavo Paradiso or Super Paradise, slightly further afield. The party migrates from sun-drenched beach bars to open-air nightclubs pumping with all-night energy. A complimentary shuttle service is available to run guests of the Myconian Collection to and from town almost every hour.
Paros Beaches
Paros’ 120km of coastline offers a mix of stunning beaches, idyllic harbors and extraordinary natural rock formations. Agia Irini, Parasporos, Farangas, Alyki, Pounta, Golden Beach, Dryos, Molos, Tsoukalia, Kolymbithres, Monastiri, Santa Maria are just a few of Paros’ beautiful award-winning beaches.
Paros Wildlife
As well as plant life, Paros is a veritable oasis for wildlife. Its position in the Cyclades islands makes it a popular resting point for birds migrating north from Africa, and it is home to approximately 200 species of birds throughout the year, including gulls, cormorants, peregrine falcons and eagles. 5,000 marine species inhabit the coasts of the Cyclades islands and many of them can be found in the clear waters surrounding Paros. The island also boasts the largest fleet of fishing boats in the whole Cyclades, and delicious fresh fish forms an important part of Parian cuisine.
Paros History
Paros has a wealth of tradition to draw on, tracing its inhabited history back some 6,000 years. The Cycladic, Minoan and Mycenean civilizations have all left their mark on Paros, with archaeological remains of palaces, towns and temples scattered throughout the island. Many of the island’s most impressive archaeological finds are housed in the Paros Archaeological Museum in Parikia.
Paros Marble
For an island so prized for its natural bounty, it is hardly surprising that Paros is best known for one of its natural products. Parian marble is world-famous and has been cherished since the 6th century BC for its unique texture, purity, translucency and flexibility. It was used by the renowned Ancient Greek sculptor Scopas, and features in the Temples of Apollo at Delphi and at Delos, the Temple of Zeus in Olympia and the sculptures of Hermes of Praxiteles and Venus de Milo.
Naoussa Town
The pretty town of Noussa on the north coast of Paros is home to a picturesque fishing harbor and the Venetian castle, as well as many churches. The nearby Kolympithres bay features extraordinary rock formations created by the sea, and a sandy beach with small coves. The 17th-century Loggovarda monastery nearby is also worth a visit.
Lefkes Village
Located in the center of the island, the picturesque traditional village of Lefkes has lovely winding marble-paved streets and charming examples of classic Cycladic village architecture as well as the church of Agia Triada (Holy Trinity). Lefkes also offers a view of the island of Naxos. There are plenty of routes for hiking enthusiasts here – with a walk to the Monastery of Agios Georgios, and a 5km ancient Byzantine marble pathway connecting Lefkes with the village of Podromos.
Archaeological Museum of Paros
The island’s archaeological museum is located in the capital Parikia, and chronicles the rich history of Paros. Exhibits include archaic and classical sculptures, as well as pottery and artifacts from the Neolithic to Roman periods. Highlights are the marble statues of Artemis, Nike and Gorgon.
Panagia Ekatontapyliani Church
Also located in Parikia, this impressive Byzantine church is well worth a visit as it is one of the most important churches in all of Greece. Also known as the Church of 100 Doors, Panagia Ekantontapyliani can trace its history back to the 4th century
