Water Sports
The protected bays with clear turquoise waters and stunning scenery in Paros provide a wide range of water sports activities. Water sports enthusiasts can rent stand-up paddleboards, kayaks, pedal boats with slides, or spend a full day paddling around the island.
If you are an extreme sports enthusiast, you can learn kite surfing at a recommended surfing club. For windsurfers, there are recommended clubs for equipment rentals and lessons, and there is the global professional tour that competes in Paros in August as part of the windsurfing world championship. You can also dive and learn diving in one of the island's best clubs and see the magical world underwater.
There are also clubs for learning kayaking in small bays where you can learn and rent small kayaks for family fun.
You can also rent your own motor boat for self driving without license to sail around the area, but it's best to book in advance as summer is the peak season for sailing, and most yachts are booked months in advance.
