Paros Drios

General information

Drios in Paros is a small fishing village located on the east coast of the island and surrounded by various nice sandy beaches, like the renowned Golden Beach and the much-preferred Lolantonis beach.
There is a row of restaurants along the promenade - specializing in fish of course - and nearby them lies a picturesque quay.

Over the last few years, the settlement has undergone tourist development to accommodate the needs of the thousands of tourists that visit the island every year. That has resulted in the establishment of several accommodations across the, in other respects, traditional and quiet village. 

Points of interest include the ancient neosoics (areas used for guarding the ships that have been raised from the sea during ancient times) and the Cave of Demons, featuring several stalagmites and stalactites. The unnerving name originates from a legend, according to which Saint Arsenios trapped the demons who were haunting the animals of a blasphemous farmer in the cave and sealed them there until the Second Coming. Note that entering and exploring the cave is challenging, so having proper clothing and equipment with you is necessary. 

In addition, looking out from the village you can see the uninhabited Drionisi islet.

    Perhaps the best taverna in the Cyclades
    I love Paros... the people, the culture, the religion, the strong family ties, the colours, the clarity in the sky.... the food... Talking of the food; if you are in Paros try dining at Annas Restaurant in Drios Village (opposite the supermarket) It is awesome!

    Anna does not show you a menu, she invites you into her kitchen and shows you all the pots containing her home made cooking. Her mum sits in the corner peeling figs, smiling and singing Greek songs.

    The food is amazing: from lamb, to fresh fish, to aubergines, to chick peas, to meat balls... all made with love... and will cost about 12 Euro plus wine :)

    Anna is the heart of the community and will welcome you into her "home"...and to the local village... If you go, please say "Ali sent you". She will give you the biggest smile and warmest welcome.

    Cheers
