Parga Town Holidays

Parga – Charming Greek fishing town in a spectacular setting
Parga Town holidays are based in an exceptionally charming and atmospheric town on the north-west coast of mainland Greece 43 miles north of Preveza airport. Parga holidays offer a very appealing destination where tourism has not spoilt the traditional way of life of the locals. Holidays in Parga enjoy something of a laid-back Greek island atmosphere and the town still feels very relaxed and authentically Greek. Parga holidays are popular with Greeks who consider the town one of the prettiest in Greece. Parga is built like a huge white amphitheatre rising from a pretty harbour on a sheltered bay. Holidays in Parga offer a superb characterful base for exploring the beautiful beaches and green lush mountainous interior of the Epirus area which is full of olive groves, citrus plantations and birdlife.

Parga holidays – Picturesque old town and charming harbour
Holidays in Parga offer a very friendly and very Greek resort. Holidays in Parga can be spent wandering the Old Town, a lovely maze of narrow lanes with whitewashed red-tiled houses, tiny shops and boutiques. Holidays in Parga are not complete without climbing up to the large Venetian castle on the headland for wonderful views. Parga holiday nightlife is centred on the charming harbour area and ranges from quiet tavernas and relaxing cafes to stylish livelier bars and a couple of small nightclubs. Try the lanes in the Old Town for quieter romantic tavernas. There is no shortage of restaurants in Parga and many serve excellent fresh fish and seafood.

Parga beaches are next to the town. Krioneri beach (Town Beach) and Piso Krioneri beach (Small Town Beach) are both a short walk from the centre of town. But holidays in Parga also offer two very fine beaches around the headland. Lichnos beach is quiet and set in a fine tree-shaded bay and mile-long Valtos beach is even closer. Both these Parga beaches offer watersports and can be reached easily on foot or very pleasantly by water taxi from the town harbour. Holidays in Parga offer many more tiny secluded bays which can be reached by water taxi.
