Water Taxi Paros

Most transfers depart from the Parikia old port quay or the Naoussa fishing harbour. If you are staying on Naoussa Bay, near Kolymbithres or Agioi Anargyroi, the boat can often pick you up by tender from the beach in front of your hotel. We confirm the exact meeting point the day before.

Paros to Naxos takes about 25 minutes by fast boat versus waiting for a scheduled ferry and its port-to-port timing. To Mykonos or Sifnos you cross directly in around an hour instead of routing through another island. There is no road option between islands, so the boat is the only door-to-door choice.

Prices are per boat, not per person, and shown as an indicative starting rate from €390. A short hop to Naxos starts lower than a longer crossing to Milos or Folegandros. The final quote depends on the route, the number of passengers and the season, so we confirm a fixed price before you book.

The meltemi is the strong northerly wind that peaks from mid-July to mid-August in the Cyclades. Our partner skippers know Paros waters, plan the timing around the daily wind pattern and pick sheltered legs and lee-side approaches. If conditions are unsafe we reschedule rather than sail; your comfort and safety come first.

Our closed-cabin boats carry small groups plus luggage, which suits families and friends travelling together. For larger parties we arrange a second boat on the same crossing.
