Paros Island, due to its location, is famous for its sunsets. You can enjoy the sunset, more or less, from any location of the west coast. However, there are a few “signature” spots near our accommodations in Parikia, which are a “must” for sunset enthusiasts.
Agioi Anargyroi Monastery is by itself an attraction, built on the side of a mountain above Parikia. It is also well-known for the infinite view which you can enjoy from up there. Sunsets that you will see from Agioi Anargyroi Monastery will be memorable for a lifetime. During days with good visibility you will be able to see Sifnos, Serifos and other islands as well.
The road to reach that spot is uphill, therefore you should be more careful than usual. However, once you reach it, you will not regret it!
This is a picturesque chapel situated next to the Frankish Castle in Parikia. As it is built above the coastal road, it features an inspiring view of the bay. During the sunset and especially in the high season, this spot can get crowded. It is however worth your time to get there and enjoy the moment.
Regarding the distances, it is situated 500 meters away from our Paros Pension Anna Spanou; 2 km away from our Marble Villas and 150 meters away from our House in Castle.
Livadia Beach is the main beach of Parikia, situated within walking distance from the center of the village. It also features a unique sunset view. Livadia is one of the few Paros beaches where you can swim and at the same time enjoy the view of the sun disappearing below the horizon. The landscape adds uniqueness to the scenery as you see Agios Fokas on one side and the north coast of Antiparos on the other.
On Livadia beach you will find taverns and restaurants from which you can enjoy the sunset as well. Just keep in mind that on the south part of the beach, the view of the sunset is better.
This spot is situated about 1 km away from our Paros Pension Anna Spanou; 1 km away from our Marble Villas and 800 meters away from our House in Castle.
