Explore The Enchanting Village of Lefkes, Paros
Stunning Lefkes village is a must-see on Paros Island. Our complete guide includes what to see in Lefkes, plus our personal recommendations on where to stay, eat and how to get there.
Spend more than five minutes in Lefkes village and you’ll soon realise you never want to leave.
Surrounded by olive groves and pine forests in verdant hills of interior Paros, Lefkes is a quintessentially historic Cycladic village boasting narrow stone laneways, stunning traditional and neo-classical architecture, and delicious tavernas, friendly locals, and that pleasant vibe found only in Greece.
The town was built in the 17th century, a protected enclave from the rampant piracy that plagued the Mediterranean waters during this period. At one point, it was even the capital of Paros, and it’s evident today in its grand (and somewhat dilapidated) old buildings. Its protected position in inland Paros also led it to become the farming epicentre of the island.
Now, it’s a popular day trip for those wanting to visit a truly traditional Greek village, and this tourism boom has seen prosperity return to the village and an influx in inhabitants keen to regenerate Lefkes to its former glory.
We visited Lefkes on four separate occasions, enamoured by its bougainvillaea-lined squares, photographic alleys, and sense of calm - time really stands still here, and you can’t help but embrace it.
Popular things to do include walking the ancient Byzantine Road (more on that below), strolling the outrageously beautiful alleys, sipping coffee under the bougainvillaea at Kafénion, enjoying a Greek pastry or four at the historical Stratis bakery, stepping inside the grand Triada church, or simply admiring the view over a delicious meal at Chrisoula.
Further down the road (or path if you’re walking the Byzantine Road)are a few other Paros villages that we feel are worth your time. Prodromos, with its jasmine and honeysuckle-lined streets, and the delicious Kallitechniko cafe, is worth a stop for an hour or two, while pretty Marpissa, with its insta-famous pink door and timeless streets, is another must-see on Paros.
This guide is designed to help you enjoy the best of Lefkes for yourself, whether visiting for an hour or a day.

LEFKES, PAROS TRAVEL ESSENTIALS
WHERE IS LEFKES, PAROS
Lefkes is located on the east of Paros island, about 40 minutes from the capital, Parikia, and 20 minutes from the popular harbour town of Naoussa.
It’s nestled in the inner part of the Island’s mountainous region, with sweeping views over Naxos Island.
Despite its reputation as one of the best things to do on Paros, it still remains quiet and peaceful, even during the peak summer months.
THE BEST TIME TO VISIT LEFKES, PAROS
The best time to visit Lefkes is during the late afternoon when the town comes alive with locals and tourists, and the timeworn streets are bathed in the glorious summer glow. Alternatively, early-mid morning is a wonderful time to stroll the streets, however, be warned, most cafes, tavernas, and stores don’t open until around 9 am.
Like most of Mediterranean Europe, Paros is prone to the extreme summer heat, and while the mountain villages provide some respite, it can still get super hot in Lefkes, so we’d avoid visiting during midday unless you plan to sit in a taverna as sip beer for hours.
We suggest visiting the Island of Paros between late April - early June, and mid-September - October - otherwise known as the shoulder season.
During this time, the days are still long and the weather and sea are warm, but the crowds are smaller and more manageable, making the island extremely pleasant.
What's more, the price of accommodation, food and drinks are cheaper during the shoulder period - and you’re helping reduce the environmental impact while extending the tourism season to locals.
HOW TO GET TO LEFKES, PAROS
Depending on where you’re based on Paros will have a bearing on what the best way is to get to Lefkes.
There are a few ways to get to Naoussa from Parikia, although which one you should opt for depends on how long you plan to visit, and whether you’re planning to explore the rest of Paros or relax in the town.
RENTING A CAR ON PAROS
Having made the trip over three times, we can safely say the easiest way to get to Lefkes is via a rental car.
From Parikia, the drive takes around 20 minutes, following the inland road over the mountains, passing the ancient marble quarry near Marathi, before descending into Lefkes.
From Naoussa, it’s a super easy 15-minute drive, following the main road that circles the island, before ascending into Lefkes. The route is very well signposted, so you can’t get lost.
Normally, we wouldn’t advocate hiring a car when visiting a Greek island, but Paros is relatively large, and if you have your own set of wheels, especially an air-conditioned set, it will make your life so much easier and allow you to see all the best things to do on Paros.
You absolutely must book a car in advance as they book out very quickly during summer.
Fortunately, compared to other Greek Islands such as Santorini, car rental on Paros is actually quite affordable, especially during the shoulder seasons. Expect to pay around €25 - €50 per day for car rental on Paros.
LOCAL BUS
The cheapest way to get to Lefkes is by local bus. Thankfully, it’s also a very easy ride.
See the latest Paros bus timetables here.
The No. 1 bus services the route from Parikia Port to Lefkes daily, with seven departure times throughout the day.
The bus terminal in Parikia can be found to the right of the ferry terminal, making it an easy transfer from the Port to Lefkes. The Lefkes bus terminal is located a short walk from the town centre.
From Naoussa, There are two buses to Lefkes per day at 9:45 am and 11:45 am, returning at 10:05 am and Midday. Alternatively, you can catch a bus to Prodromos, and then another towards Lefkes.
Tickets between major hubs including Naoussa cost around €1.80 (apparently increasing to €2 from 2022 onwards). Tickets for the Paros bus service should be purchased prior to boarding and can be found at bus stations, or on the bus (you must pay cash).
The buses themselves are decent; they're air-conditioned and comfortable, although in peak season they fill up seriously quickly and you may find yourself standing.
Buses run frequently, although the timings are sometimes a little limiting when you want to pack lots of Paros's best things to do into a single day.
SCOOTER OR ATV
For those on a budget, hiring an ATV or scooter might be a better option to get to Lefkes.
There are heaps of rental agencies in Parikia and Naoussa, which rent ATV’s or scooters at affordable daily rates.
We rented our ATV from Spanopoulos Car Rental, which was one of the better rental agencies we came across in Greece.
Note that to rent a scooter in Greece you'll need to show proof of a motorbike license.
WHERE TO STAY IN LEFKES
From cosy, family-run hotels to extravagant beachside villas, there are plenty of accommodation options on Paros to suit every style, traveller or budget.
PAROCKS LUXURY HOTEL & SPA
Paros shuns hectic schedules. It’s all about relaxing and reconnecting with nature – which is exactly what Parocks Luxury Hotel offers.
Opened in December 2020, Parocks Hotel is a champion of sustainable design (which we like) and a secluded haven in the hills overlooking a wide-open sea (which we also like). Each of the 13 rooms and suites has a private pool, and there’s plenty more indulgence in the restaurant, bar, spa, and open-air jacuzzi.
Although closer to Naoussa (and super close to the beach!), we’ve included Parocks Luxury Hotel here because it fits the ‘charming mountain town’ vibe that made Lefkes one of our favourite Greek villages.
THE DETAILS
BOOK | PAROCKS LUXURY HOTEL
TRADITIONAL WINDMILL
This might be one of the best apartment finds we’ve ever encountered. Windmills were traditionally used in the Greek islands to mill wheat – they’re everywhere around the Cyclades, but this might be one of very few you can sleep in.
Four meters in diameter and 7.5 meters high, the Stunning Traditional Windmill houses a bedroom, bathroom, kitchen and living room over two floors. And you’re strolling distance from the village of Lefkes.
Originally built in 1856, the windmill was “mortally wounded” in a storm a century later and eventually restored to its current glory.
THE DETAILS
BOOK | TRADITIONAL WINDMILL
BOCAMVIGLIA CYCLADIC GEM
Although not the most budget of budget accommodation options in Greece, Bocamviglia Cycladic Gem is in the heart of Lefkes Village, making it a perfect base for exploring Paros at a relaxed pace.
The one-bedroom home can house three people (four at a squeeze), bringing the per-person cost down to a comfortable level.
Bocamviglia is packed with locally-made charm and old-fashioned character. Sometimes that “charm” translates to a kitchen in need of an update, and sometimes a delightfully sunny balcony made of gently curving whitewashed stone.

THINGS TO DO IN LEFKES, PAROS
STROLL THE TIME-WORN STREETS & ALLEYWAYS
In Lefkes, time stands still.
Tightly woven white-washed houses spread out across the village like crumbled feta, bright bougainvillaea turns non-descript corners into colourful bouquets, peaceful alleyways open into grand neo-classical squares, and the smell of honeysuckle floats gently on the breeze.
The town is quiet - save for the occasional bell toll from the historic Agia Triada church, the sound of farming in the surrounding fields, and the chit-chat of tourists who make their way from the town’s historic centre.
It feels like 1780, yet it’s 2022.
For those of you who love to get lost in historic towns like this, you’re in for a treat - Lefkes is the perfect place to get lost. And in the maze-like streets, you will.
But the benefit of getting lost in Lefkes is that each corner will bring a new surprise, a new photogenic spot in which to drool and snap a few photos.
Most of all, though, will be the sense of stepping back in time, to slower times, which, in this frenetically paced modern world we live, is severely underrated.
HIKE THE HISTORIC BYZANTINE PATH
The aromatic scent of lavender hangs on the light sea breeze as we walk the historic Byzantine trail between Lefkes and Prodromos. Even in the scorching midday sun, we take our time, enjoying the sweeping views down over Paros’ quaint villages to the imposing mountains of Naxos in the distance.
It’s a simple kind of beauty.
We pass endless olive groves, over intricate stone bridges, and collapsing stone brick walls, stopping every so often to take photos of the alluring countryside.
As the sun starts to make us somewhat weary, we arrive in pretty Prodromos, a quiet town that’s even quieter as locals retreat indoors to escape the searing heat. We collapse at Kallitechniko, the bougainvillaea-covered taverna in the centre of town, slamming down a beer each before diving into a local bean dip and saganaki.
Two hours later, relaxed and content, we’re ready to continue our walk. We pass through the beautiful back streets of Prodromos, before meandering through farmland and into the delightful town of Marpissa, walking the endless cobbled streets before ending our hike with a coke and a bus back to Lefkes.
Honestly, despite the heat and rolled ankles from the somewhat slippery marble, this hike was one of our favourite things to do on Paros, revealing a side to the Island that not many would see, nor enjoy.
To do the hike yourself, we start in Lefkes (the starting point can be hard to find, so we’ve linked it here). The easy 3.5 km hike follows the historic 1,000-year-old road linking the ancient towns of Lefkes and Prodromos, and onto Marpissa (if you wish).
Connected by bus every hour (€2 euros from Marpissa back to Lefkes, leaves from Windmills), we recommend commencing the hike early in Lefkes and following the road down into the lower villages.
We highly recommend doing the hike in walking shoes, and bringing a hat, sunscreen, and lots of water.
THE DETAILS
Where | Byzantine Road, Lefkes
Cost | Free
Tips | Pack water, sunscreen, and a hat. Wear proper shoes
STEP INSIDE AGIA TRIADA CHURCH
Rising above the whitewashed village of Lefkes stands the imposing Agia Triada (Holy Trinity), a 19th-century Byzantine church of huge cultural importance to residents of Lefkes, and indeed Paros.
Flanked by the historic bougainvillaea-covered homes that frame the church, the Parian marble and brick masterpiece of Agia Triada is picture-perfect, and one of the main attractions in Lefkes.
The 2nd largest church on the Island after Parikia’s Ekatontapiliani, construction began in 1830 and was completed in 1835. Now, what remains is a stunning example of Greek/Byzantine architecture, with two imposing marble bell towers dominating the structure, visible from all parts of the town.
Step inside the Basilica and you’ll discover a three-aisled pattern which leads to the impressive altar. The vaulted archways and detailed frescoes, which date back to the 19th century, and the ceramic representation of the Holy Trinity crafted by Virginia Kydonieo, are among the highlights.
It’s also a wonderful place to escape the heat, as the church is typically cool, even in summer.
THE DETAILS
Where | Agia Triada Church, Lefkes
VISIT THE BEAUTIFUL LOWER VILLAGES OF PRODROMOS & MARPISSA
Located in the lower valley to the east of Lefkes lies Prodromos and Marpissa, two delightful, yet somewhat undiscovered villages that, in some ways, are more beautiful than Lefkes (surprising, we know!).
Prodromos is typically Cycladic in style and breathtakingly beautiful - narrow alleyways, arched entrances, whitewashed homes and quaint chapels, all covered in colourful bougainvillaea and fragrant honeysuckle. The most emblematic site in town is the entrance archway which joins the churches of St Nicolas and St. Spyridon and is covered with a vaulted roof and belfry.
In the centre of town, you’ll find the excellent taverna Kallitechniko, which serves a wide array of Parian cuisine at affordable prices. For those hiking the Byzantine path, this place feels heaven-sent. We recommend a long, beer or wine-filled lunch here.
Picturesque Marpissa, further along, the Byzantine path, is just as beautiful, if not a little quieter.
Standing on Kefalos hill, Marpissa is a similar vibe to Prodromos - beautiful alleyways, homes and churches, built into the side of the hill. However, it is very quiet and feels more authentic, if that is even possible.
Famous for its pink door (it’s an Instagram hotspot on the Island), Marpissa has a number of picturesque squares and churches to spend some time, as well as a lunch/dinner under the trees at Charoula's Tavern.
SIP COFFEE IN THE BEAUTIFUL SQUARES
Arriving in Lefkes somewhat late after a slow, sleepy morning, we strolled through the town before stumbling on the most beautiful, colourful, shaded square in the centre of town. There, locals sat under the towering pine, coffee in hand, sharing the town’s gossip with the usual gusto.
As travellers who desire such authentic moments, the scene was just too much to ignore, so we pulled up a chair and sat down, disregarding our plans to start the Byzantine road early to avoid the midday heat.
We ordered coffee, zucchini balls, bread and tzatziki, and nestled into our chairs to take it all in.
In the centre was the brightly coloured neoclassical church of Holy Trinity, slightly dishevelled yet beautiful.
To our right was the bougainvillaea-covered general store, selling various fruits and vegetables from the surrounding countryside, where each customer would stop, greet the owner, chat for five minutes, and then set off on their day.
To our left were two yia yia’s, talking feverishly with their hands, no doubt discussing their husband’s ill ways.
Occasionally, a local farmer, brutish, yet showing the signs of toil, would walk gingerly through the square, nodding kaliméra to his friends.
And then there were the tourists, like us, watching the world go by, taking it all in.
The coffee and food were wonderful - the zucchini balls moist and crispy, the tzatziki wonderfully creamy, and the coffee as strong as ever (and much needed).
But it needn’t have mattered. It was all about the moment, the tangible sense of being present and immersed in the local culture.
And that’s the beauty of Lefkes, and a reason why we came back to the village time after time - it feels so real, so authentic, that a simple coffee in a square is simply wonderful.
The best places to enjoy a coffee in Lefkes yourself include Agiazi, and Kafénion, situated on the picturesque Agia Triadi square.
SHOP FOR LOCAL SOUVENIRS
Hands up if you’re a traveller that loves to pick up a souvenir while on holiday? Not a tacky, tourist trap one like those you’ll find in the streets of Prague, Paris or Rome? We mean a real one.
If your hand is up, then Lefkes is a great place to grab yourself a local, handmade souvenir.
Part of the renaissance of Lefkes has been the arrival of artisans, who’ve moved here to escape the rat race and focus on creating handcrafted pieces for locals and tourists. Throughout the town, you’ll see a number of beautiful stores dedicated to these wares, selling everything from jewellery to textiles to interior pieces.
In our opinion, it’s a far better place to find something special than Mykonos, Santorini, or even Naoussa, so we suggest picking up something special for yourself here, and supporting the local artisans and economy.
The best places to shop in Lefkes include:
BLACK ROSE | A wide array of clothes, textiles, accessories and more. Located under a picturesque archway as you walk into town
SCARABEE JEWELLERY | A beautiful store in the heart of Lefkes selling unique handcrafted pieces. Well worth a visit
ART&SILVER | The most photogenic store in Lefkes, with the exterior covered in a whole array of wonderful souvenirs and handmade jewellery
AERIKO LEFKES | Another beautiful little store on the way into town, selling a wide variety of homemade souvenirs
ONEIPA CONCEPT STORE | Located right next to Stratis bakery, Oneipa sells a huge array of super nice interior pieces, as well as bags and dresses. We could’ve spent a LOT of money here
PHOTOGRAPH EVERYTHING IN LEFKES
Lefkes is a dream for photographers, filled with so many beautiful corners you could spend all day here and still find something or someone to photograph.
So much so that the town has become somewhat of an Instagram destination over the last few years.
Generally, Insta-fame brings the unwanted perils of over-tourism, however here in Lefkes, it seems that most visitors are respectful, considerate and also genuinely curious about exploring the village, instead of just snapping a few IG bangers.
This leads us to our next point - we’re generally not ones to share Instagram hotspots, but here are a few of our hidden spots to photograph in town:
The photogenic bougainvillaea-covered corner house
Agia Triada Square, and the outrageously photogenic Kafénion cafe and surrounds
Holy Trinity Square including the colourful Holy Trinity Church
The colourful, pot lined streets in the centre of historic Lefkes
The famous pink door in Marpissa
As we mentioned above, Insta-fame brings unwanted over-tourism and bad behaviour, so please don’t be a dickhead.
Respect the village and its inhabitants by being quiet, respecting people’s property, and spending money at the town’s businesses.

WHERE TO EAT & DRINK IN LEFKES, PAROS
ENJOY A SUNSET MEAL AT CHRISOULA
Chrisoula Mezes Tavern is somewhat of a Lefkes institution, serving wonderfully authentic, homemade Parian cuisine with probably the best view in Lefkes.
Overlooking Naxos to the East, and the twin marble towers of Agia Triada to the west, Chrysoula is the perfect place to enjoy a sunset dinner on the sweeping outdoor terrace.
The food is exceptional, utilising the array of exceptional products from Paros to good effect - you must try the chickpea stew (maybe our favourite dish on the Island), the bourgiourdi (feta, tomatoes, capers and chilli flakes), the salad sintrofia (grilled zucchini, potato salad, roasted Parian cheese), and of course the Greek cuisine staple, moussaka.
Wash it down with a local rosé or crisp white.
THE DETAILS
Where | Chrisoula Mezes Tavern, Lefkes
Opening Hours | Daily: 12:30 pm - 12 am
Cost | Starters from €5, Mains from €9
STOP FOR DELICIOUS GELATO AT HONEY
After a long, hot hike along the Byzantine path to Marpissa, we made it back to Lefkes weary and in need of a sugar rush (or water, but who needs water?!).
After stumbling back into town, legs weary and stomachs rumbling, we saw Honey, Lefkes’ wonderful gelato shop.
As you might know, we live by the holiday motto, “a gelato a day keeps the doctor away”, so we gleefully stepped inside and hurriedly ordered our ice cream - chocolate and cheesecake for Mark, watermelon and lemon for Mim.
We sat in the town square, resting our aching legs, savouring every moment of gelato. It. Was. Delicious.
Honey specialise in handmade gelato that is creamy and fruity, and we can’t help but think it was one of the best gelato we had on Paros - so we highly recommend stopping here when in Lefkes. If gelato isn’t your thing, there is also a huge array of greek pastries and biscuits on offer.
THE DETAILS
Where | Honey Ice Cream, Lefkes
SAMPLE GREEK TREATS AT STRATIS BAKERY
Mark is a glutton for any baked treats, so much so that he spent most of our time on the Cyclades in search of the best spanakopita - and the best one he found was right here in Lefkes, at Stratis bakery.
From the moment we stepped inside, that Stratis was going to have really good baked goods - the photos on the wall, the smells wafting from the ovens, and the friendly service from the owners.
So what made this the best spanakopita he’d had in Greece? Flaky pastry, fresh ingredients, subtle flavours and the most intangible yet valued trait of all - love.
It’s not overly surprising, given the family-run Stratis Bakery has existed for over 100 years, perfecting the art of baking in their small yet nimble Lefkes town bakery.
Stratis don’t just specialise in spanakopita though, there are many types of bread, pastries and sweet cakes on offer to suit your taste.
So, if you’re like Mark and love baked treats, head to Stratis and we assure you, you won’t be disappointed.
THE DETAILS
Where | Stratis Bakery, Lefkes
Opening Hours | 7:30 am - 9:30 pm
There are a number of other restaurants and coffee shops in town you may want to check out. These include:
Klarinos Tavern | Stock standard Greek food in the heart of Lefkes
Lefkiano Restaurant | Pretty restaurant located in the historic streets, serving standard Parian food. Slightly expensive but the location is spot on
Sweet Smelling Kitchen | Located in the pretty Byzantine Square, this dessert restaurant is perfect for an afternoon sweet treat
ESSENTIAL PAROS TRAVEL INFORMATION
RESPONSIBLE TRAVEL IN GREECE
Responsible, sustainable travel is what we’re all about here at TCW HQ, and this is especially true when we travel to places suffering from climate change and plastic pollution, such as Greece.
Disappointingly, we encountered quite a bit of plastic pollution during our Greece trip — a sad reality of our planet today! — so we feel it’s super important to share a few tips on how you can minimise your overall impact while still having the Greek holiday of your dreams.
DON’T BUY BOTTLED DRINKS | Please, for the love of the ocean: DO NOT BUY SINGLE-USE PLASTIC BOTTLES! When you see a bunch of plastic bottles bob past you in the open sea, you’ll understand why. Buy one of these amazing bottles instead
TRAVEL DURING SHOULDER SEASON | Shoulder season is the time before and after the peak season when things are quieter, cheaper, and more enjoyable (especially in the Med!). Travel then to reduce over-tourism, and extend the season for local operators
OCEAN-FRIENDLY TOILETRIES | Everything that goes down the boat drain ends up in the ocean, try and make sure all your toiletries, sunscreen, shampoo is as ocean-friendly as possible! Solid bars are a great place to start (see below to buy some eco-friendly toiletries).
DO YOUR OWN CLEANUPS | See rubbish on the beach, forest or town? Pick it up, and dispose of it properly. If every traveller helped out during their holiday, the beaches, oceans and forests would be a much happier place for it
DON’T USE PLASTIC BAGS | Pack a reusable tote and use these to carry your snacks, drinks, or new souvenirs instead
LEAVE NO TRACE | Limit your consumption of plastic, and opt for sustainable / zero waste alternatives instead. Pack a reusable water bottle, bring your reusable coffee cup, and if you can’t sip your cocktails without a straw, bring a metal or bamboo one along instead. And never leave a trace...
BE ANIMAL-FRIENDLY | Observe sea creatures from a distance, don’t pick up wildlife like starfish or urchins, or grab onto turtles, dolphins, etc. If an animal wants to interact with you, it’ll approach you 🙂
SUPPORT THE LOCAL COMMUNITY | Visit a locally owned taverna for a meal, buy which means both supporting the local economy and community, and also giving you a real authentic experience. This is something we’ve appreciated about both our MedSailors trips!
ICE CREAM CONE | bonus tip - eat your ice cream in a cone, rather than a cup and plastic spoon for the ultimate plastic-free indulgence!
READ | For more responsible travel tips, we also have this guide to reducing your plastic consumption on your travels, as well as this guide to the eco-friendly packing essentials we have with us on every single trip.
