✈️ By plane
Paros has an airport (PAS) with regular domestic flights from Athens operated by airlines such as Aegean/Olympic Air; the duration of the Athens-Paros flight is about 35-45 minutes. From Paros airport to Parikia port, transfers via taxi or bus take about 10-20 minutes depending on your destination on the island. In seasonal periods there are also direct charter flights from some European airports; alternatively you can arrive at nearby airports (Mykonos, Naxos, Santorini) and continue by sea.

⛴️ By ferry/hydrofoil
The main port of arrival is Parikia; the main departures are from Piraeus and Rafina (Athens) and from the nearby islands Mykonos, Naxos, Santorini and Syros. Operating shipowners include Blue Star Ferries, SeaJets, Golden Star Ferries and local operators; approximate distances: Piraeus-Paros with conventional ferries 4-5.5 hours, Piraeus with fast services 3-4 hours; Rafina-Paros with fast connections 3-4 hours; Mykonos-Paros 30-60 minutes; Naxos-Paros 20-40 minutes; Santorini-Paros 2-3.5 hours depending on the type of vessel. Some short crossings use the small port of call of Pounta; the main landing places of the regular routes are Parikia and, for certain lines, other piers on the island.

The skipper – and any crew members, if applicable – sleeps in a dedicated cabin, separate from those reserved for guests, which is not included in the count of guest cabins shown on the boat listing.

Cabins are allocated based on availability at the time of booking.

Yes, it is possible to reserve a cabin for single use. To receive a customized offer for booking a cabin for single use, contact the organizer via the platform's messaging system.

The provisions will be purchased by the participants immediately after boarding.

The skipper helps out, but meal preparation is a shared activity among all participants in the experience.

It is recommended to travel light and with a soft, easy-to-store bag. Especially in summer, swimsuits, T-shirts and shorts are almost exclusively used on the boat during the day. A sweatshirt and long pants for the evening may be sufficient in the middle of summer, something heavier is preferable in the cooler months. Sunglasses, hat and sunscreen to protect yourself from the sun, flip-flops or light shoes to go ashore. It can also be useful to have a small watertight container for your wallet/mobile phone with you, to use when you go ashore.

A soft bag is required for transporting luggage, so that it can be easily stowed away. Hard suitcases and trolleys should be avoided, as they are difficult, if not impossible, to stow. A small backpack or beach bag may be useful for shore excursions.

No, no previous experience is required to participate in this experience. Some routes are more protected than others and therefore easier to navigate. To choose the Experience that best suits you, contact the Skipper. You don't need to be a great swimmer, beaches and shallow waters can be easily reached, even with a dinghy.

Yes, this experience is also suitable for groups with children/teenagers (check the form if there are any restrictions on the age of the participants). Contact the Skipper for itineraries/experiences that may be more suitable for children.

No, unfortunately pets are not allowed on board.

Yes, but outside the boat and downwind, and always with full respect for the other participants. Under no circumstances is it permitted to throw cigarette butts into the sea.

The boat is equipped with both 12V sockets (with USB and/or cigarette lighter connectors) that can normally be used at any time, and 220V sockets that can only be used when docked in ports, once connected to the charging stations on the quay.

We will spend the night moored in a bay or in port, where we will be able to refill our water and/or provisions, as well as enjoy a pleasant evening ashore.
