Fly in to Athens International Airport (also known as Eleftherios Venizelos).
Once you arrive in Athens, you have two options to get to Paros:
BY PLANE // ΜΕ ΑΕΡΟΠΛΑΝΟ
Paros has its own airport, and during the busy season, dozens of flights go in and out of the island every day. Flights from Athens average around 45 minutes and usually cost around $100
​
There are two main carriers that will pretty much run flights around the clock, and you can book directly with the airlines or through services like Kayak or Expedia:
​
We typically fly from Athens to the islands, and then use ferries in between.
BY FERRY // ΜΕ ΠΛΟΙΟ
Paros is also easily accessed by ferry. After landing in Athens, the closest ferry port is located in the next city over, called Pireaus.
​
There are a variety of ways to get to Pireas:
Taxi or Uber: Approx 40 min and 50 Euros
Metro: Approx 1hr 20 min and 20 euros
Sea Jets, Blue Star, and Hellenic Seaways are the most common lines, and typically offer multiple high-speed options to the island every day.
We typically like to travel with Sea Jets, as the boats are newer and they offer the most high-speed options which will get you to Paros in about 2 hours.
​
Do not feel rushed to purchase ferry tickets too far in advance. In fact, we'd recommend waiting until at least April, as the ferry companies release an extended summer schedule closer to the start of the season.
