It is not only a seaside village that retains its color and picturesqueness,but a verdant region of particular interest. Being invisible from the beach,it was built in such a way as not to be approachable by pirates. From thatperiod until 1970, it was isolated from the rest of Greece, as there was noroad network. The resort, with the pebbled beaches, the picturesquesettlements, like Paralia and Metropolis, and its sights, has become anattractive international tourist destination. Kyparissi was loved for its“silent” hospitality by several celebrities, such as Princess Diana, the Bushfamily and others.
In Paralia, you can see beautiful traditional houses on the sea.Whitewashed with blue windows and with dates of previous centuriesengraved on their inscriptions, are waiting for you, a beautiful backgroundfor your photos. Enjoy the beautiful beaches, such as Megali Ammos, awide beach with white pebbles and crystal clear waters or the pebbledbeach of Agia Kyriaki. The sailors’ paradise is here! All year round,yachts and sailboats arrive in Kyparissi, away from the prying eyes of othertravelers. There are a lot of bays that can be reached by boat, such as thesmall Drymiskos bay, the closed seacoast of Vlychada and the secludedBalogeri.
