Antiparos is a small island right next to Paros Cyclades. Ferries connect daily Antiparos to Pounta, the closest spot of Paros.
Antiparos is almost a flat island with beautiful, sandy beaches and short vegetation. The hishest peak of Antiparos is Prophet Elias, at an altitude of 301 m, so generally the island doesn't have tall mountains. |

Chora, the capital of Antiparos, is located on the northern side and has a calm port.

The most special geographical feature of Antiparos is the Cave, located almost in the centre of the island.
The cave was explored in the 15th century and it is a marvel of nature with all these rare stalagmites and stalactites. In fact, the oldest stalagmite is estimated around 45 million years old, making it the oldest stalagmite in Europe. |
