The Gold Book of Antiparos | Page 5

THE ANTI-STAR OF THE CYCLADES! The anti- of Paros isn’t lacking anything compared to its famous big sister, as it doesn’t live in the shade of Paros! The cycladic island has its own personality, with its trump cards be- ing its natural beauties, the virgin beaches with the golden sand and the deep blue waters, the scattered islands of an international archaeological interest, the cave with the oldest stalactite of Europe, the sea caves, the Venetian Castle, the scenic stone-paved alleys, the friendly people... The island, washed with the sunlight, with the intense blue and turquoise touches, is a favourite destination for thousands of tourists from every part of the world with the A-list Hollywood star Tom Hanks and his half-Greek wife, Rita Wilson as the top visitors, who have their own residence to relax and enjoy the tranquility. Here you can also find the popular camping and the legendary disco “La Luna”, for the hopelessly romantic visitors, 40- and 50-years old, who managed to live Antiparos when it used to be an unconventional island with just a few accommodations and shops. Since then, the island has been constantly developing, keeping however, the carelessness of yesterday. 5
