Most beaches on this wind-swept island – covered mainly with fine sand – are located next to modern and well-equipped facilities for all kinds of water sports, offering their sporty visitors some carefree and stimulating fun-time.

So, wear your happiest mood and explore the endless possibilities of seawater fun on this famous snow-white Cyclades island.

Beach soccer; beach volleyball; diving; pedalo riding; sailing; waterslides; waterskiing, underwater fishing, kayaking and surfing: these are the most popular activities that will put your stamina to the test and keep your adrenalin surge up all day long!

The Paros sea area is widely considered to be a surfer’s paradise, a top choice for Greek and foreign athletes alike. The wind speed and direction on the island’s southeastern side in combination with the sea waves create a worldwide known surfing area ideal for international windsurfing games. So, it is no surprise that the PWA (Professional Windsurfers Association) World Championship used to take place on the island for a good, straight number of years!

The first colourful sails appeared in Paros at the beginning of the ‘80s, offering a high standard and almost never-ending spectacle to windsurf fans among others… Today there are modern surfing clubs on many beaches offering training courses to future surfers as well as full gear renting, addressing even the most experienced and demanding ones.
