About Paralio Astros Peloponnese - presentation, information, photos and recommendations
Paralio Astros is a really pretty beach and port village, with a long, beautiful sandy beach that attracts tourists from all over the Peloponnese. Along the beach are pleasant cafes and taverns; in the back streets you’ll find shops and more cafes. In the north end of town a small hill rises up, with a castle on top. The castle was built in connection with the Greek revolution in 1821, on top of the remains of a medieval castle. Inside the castle are three houses built by brothers who fought for Greece's freedom at this time.
If you walk along the beach towards the castle, you'll first pass the moored little fishing boats, then come to a small rocky beach, then to an amphitheatre of recent date, and finally to a small lighthouse and an even smaller chapel. The latter is devoted Profiti Ilias, and is only two or three square metres in size. Picnic tables and benches are placed outside, with wide views over the beautiful Argolis Bay.
Charming Paralio Astros is an excellent excursion from Nafplio, and a really charming town to spend some time in.
