About Parga
Our flights to Parga touch down at Preveza Lefkas Airport, which is a little further south on mainland Greece’s west coast. It takes about an hour to travel from the airport to the town, but what’s in store is worth it. Looks-wise, Parga can do no wrong. With its big scoop of sand, bright blue waters and mountain backdrop, it’s got real postcard appeal. The restaurant-lined harbour’s backed by a maze of café-and-shop-studded streets. This place isn’t popular with the British crowd, either – Greeks love to come here on holiday. Look beyond the bay, and you’ll be met with a higgledy-piggledy network of family-run tavernas, age-old churches and blink-and-you’ll-miss-them souvenir shops. It’s not strictly Greek here, though. You’ll find a fair few bars and restaurants with a more international flavour, and the hotels strike a balance between modern and traditional features. For beaches, there’s a mini one in Parga itself. You can get a full sandy deal by hailing a taxi boat and heading for the golden shores of Lichnos and Valtos. Paradise Beach, meanwhile, looks as though it’s masquerading as a Caribbean stretch with its powder-white sands and glass-clear waters. Our international flights to Parga travel direct from London Gatwick and Manchester. To book cheap flights, take a look at our deals page.
Fast Facts
- Give ‘bourtheto’ a whirl – clusters of tiny fish baked in tomato sauce. If you’ve overdosed on Greek cooking, though, take your pick of restaurants serving British, Italian and Chinese favourites.
- Stay up late in Parga. Its waterfront and old town pack in plenty of bars and clubs that have good stamina, particularly in summer.
- Venture into Parga’s rabbit’s warren of an old town and pick a path up to the town’s Venetian castle.
- Hunt for souvenirs in the network of alleyways beyond the waterfront. Jewellery is particularly big business in these parts.
- Tick off another island. Flights to Parga put you in a great spot to discover Lefkas and Meganissi, both of which offer up a more natural snapshot of Greece.
