Holidays in Paralio Astros

Holidays in Paralio Astros put the best of the eastern Peloponnese on a plate. Still largely unnoticed by holidaying crowds, this beautiful slice of the Greek mainland is known for its untouristy feel, pristine beaches and spectacular ancient sites.

Spread around a pretty, castle-topped hill called 'Isis' or 'island', the town couldn't be more authentically Greek. Atmospheric shopping streets radiate out to a tree-lined waterfront moored with colourful fishing boats. Around the harbourside square, affable tavernas jostle for custom and beyond, two appealing sand-and-shingle beaches lure you to bask in the rays and the sapphire Argolic waters. All things considered, it's easy to see why the Greeks love holidays in Paralio Astros, especially during high summer.

There's a lot more to Paralio Astros though. On the sightseeing front, it's a winner with plentiful classical and natural splendours close at hand. If you love exploring, take day trips to the amazing Corinth Canal, the amphitheatres of Epidavros and Argos and to ancient Mycanae – they're all on Paralio Astros' list of holiday musts.
