Antiparos is like a white canvass with dashes of blue and green against the shimmering blue Aegean. The island has historic importance and is known around the world. Monuments and other landmarks attest to the creators of the unique Cycladic civilization. One of the world's most gorgeous caves gapes in the middle of the island, which became known around the world between the 17th and 19th centuries thanks to the texts of foreign travelers describing the cave, its paintings, and other archaeological sites on the island. Today, Antiparos attracts thousands of tourists who come to admire the cave, swim in the pristine waters, stroll the quaint cobbled passages through the town, and sample local foods and the island's fine wine and tsikoudia. Bars and discos offer nightlife, but more importantly the locals' hospitality and warmth guarantee a memorable stay.

Antiparos is reached via Paros, which is linked to Athens by plane and regular boat service (ferry, high speed, and hydrofoil) from Piraeus, Rafina, Thessaloniki, Crete, the Sporades, the Dodecanese, and the eastern Aegean island. Access from Paros is easy: just a 30-minute crossing by fishing boat from Paroikia and a 6-minute crossing by ferry from Pounta.
