..it’s too crowded in July and August. Everyone seems to be there, prices go up, and locals get less friendly. It was still worth a visit though but we only stayed for four days all together. One of the days we escaped the busy beaches around Parikia and took the bus to the small village of Lefkes and then went on to the beach Pisso Livadi. It was a really nice trip that showed us a different side of Paros, still touristy, but less crowded and much more relaxed.
