Antiparos is a tiny island very close to Paros. Although Paros offers a cosmopolitan holiday and a vivid nightlife, Antiparos is actually the opposite, with quiet beaches and calm evenings. Sites are few on the island and is actually restricted to the Cave of Antiparos with the nice stalactites and stalagmites. Swimming in nice beaches and soaking the summer sun are pretty much the main things to do in Antiparos. Nice beaches are found all around the island, even a few meters from the fishing port of the Town. Glyfa, Psaralyki and the Camping beach are few of them.

The cave of Antiparos has amazing stalactites and stalagmites in all its rooms. Outside the cave, there is the church of Agios Ioannis Spiliotis. It is located 9 km south of Chora.
The Castle, now in ruins, comes up in the middle of Chora. It was square in shape and had houses around it, while a circular tower was built in the middle. The entrance to the castle is next to the Cathedral of Agios Nikolaos.
Despotiko is a small, uninhabited islet to the south of Antiparos, It has long, sandy beaches with crystal water. Many tours from Paros/ Antiparos go to Despotiko and other smaller islets around it.
The small chapel of Agios Ioannis Spiliotis stands at the entrance of Antiparos Cave, on the southern side of the island. Every year, there is a large festival on Saint John's name day, May 8th.
