Serviced Apartments in Párga

Párga is the name of a small town and municipality in the north west of mainland Greece, about 20 miles from the island of Corfu. The town is most well known for having a wonderful view of the Ionian Sea as well as its own scenic beauty. Many apartment rentals in Párga overlook the gorgeous bay and marina, the focal point for the town as a whole.

Back in the 16th century a Venetian fortress was built on the headland as a lookout point to protect the town. This fortress has now fallen into disrepair but is still worth visiting for its views of the surrounding area. Many islands can be seen from this vantage point such as Corfu, Lefkada and Paxoi. Some holiday apartments in Párga also have views of these islands as well as a small islet located between the beach and the harbour.

This islet is actually so close to town that he can be reached via a short swim from the main beach. On the islet there is a small chapel and the jetty and it is a nice moment to simply venture out to this point, sit on the jetty and view Párga from another perspective. From the islet you will also be able to see Párga's backdrop of mountainous countryside with its forests and rocky outcrops. With the town not being especially large you could also probably spot your Párga holiday rental from here.

Back in the town itself and Párga has all the facilities you would expect from a town this size. As well as the traditional churches, banks and taverns, there is also a lyceum, a town square and the town port. The main beach is found very close to Párga city centre (center) apartments but there are also other beaches you can visit using the small ferries in the area. Travelling by sea is often the most pleasurable way to see other small villages and towns in the area.

When it comes to cuisine, you will easily find tavernas serving traditional Greek foods with a focus on fish, pastry, cheese and olives. If you're not too sure what to order when it comes to lunch or dinner, consider ordering meze; similar to Spanish tapas, this is a selection of small dishes with a little bit of everything included. Typical Greek liqueurs such as ouzo and tsipouro are also great to try with your meal (and possibly to take a bottle back to your Párga serviced accommodation!).
