Parikia, the capital of Paros, is a delightful Aegean village with white-washed houses and quaint narrow streets. Enveloped by spectacular beaches and dotted with ancient monuments, Parikia promises a unique blend of history, beauty, and charm.

Diving into Parikia’s Culture

Unlike British shores, the Greek culture is deeply rooted in their ancient history and Orthodox traditions. Attending the local festivals, like the three-day Feast of Assumption in mid-August, can be an enriching experience. Remember, Greeks are late eaters and diners often start at 9 PM or later, unlike the typical “tea time” in the UK.

Language

Learning a few Greek phrases can be helpful, although English is widely spoken in tourist areas. ‘Kalimera’ (Good morning), ‘Efharisto’ (Thank you), and ‘Parakalo’ (Please) could be a good start!

Exploring Parikia with a Rental Car

Mobility and Parking

Getting around Parikia by rental car is a fantastic choice for holidaying Brits who love the freedom of exploring on their terms. Although parking can be a challenge during peak season, there's free parking in Livadia Beach and paid options near the port.

Car Class Recommendations

If you're sticking to the major roads, a compact car would suffice. Planning to explore off-track neighbourhoods and mountainous roads? Go for a sturdy SUV!

Attractions and Neighbourhoods to Visit

Driving routes in Parikia are decked with sandy beaches, historic landmarks, and serene landscapes. Parikia’s old town is a must-visit, boasting buildings in the traditional Cycladic style. The Frankish Castle and The Church of 100 Doors (Panagia Ekatontapyliani) are remarkable landmarks to visit. Driving around you can also find beautiful beaches like Livadia, Krios, and Martselo.

The Practicalities: Rules of the Road

Unlike the UK’s ‘keep left,’ Greece follows the ‘keep right’ rule. Seat belts are mandatory for all passengers, and the use of mobile phones while driving is prohibited without a hands-free device.

Speed Limits and Traffic Rules

Over here, signs are displayed in kilometres. Watch out for speed limits, which are generally 50km/h in towns and 90km/h outside towns.
