Oh what a day, I booked a day trip which, went from the harbour at 10am We sailed up along the little beaches until we join the river estuary and sailed up into it, taking in the beautiful scenery with swallows, swifts and house martins flying high and low across the river, just taking a dive and skimming the river surface for a well needed drink. It was beautiful to watch as I sat at the front of the boat taking dozens of photos. We then headed back out to sea and carried on along the coast to a cave where the captain steered the boat into it. A few tourists on the boat dived in and swam in the clear blue water. I couldn’t resist either and found it refreshing and quiet mentally moving too! We then headed to a little beach for lunch and swimming, the captain said “ be really for 5pm as we will head back home”. True to Greek time, the captain returned at 6pm! So typical of Greece! We entered the port just as the sun was setting, an amazing day enjoyed by all.
3. Nicopolis Museum

Nicopolis is an ancient city that was built on 31 B.C by Octavios after the batle of Aktio. If you translate it from Greek to English Nicopolis, means the city of victory. It is placed just outside the town of Preveza. It is great for someone that is interested in ancient history to visit that place. Also the museum that they recently built near the ancient city of Nicopolis is one of the most moderate and intresting musuems in Greece.

The site is where Augustus founded the city after defeating Mark Antony and Cleopatra at the Battle of Actium. The museum is located near the site and can be visited with the same ticket. The museum has a rich collection of exhibits, from the 1st century BC to the 7th century AD. Exceptional early Christian mosaics can be seen on the site.

We visited the castle just before the sunset and the scenery was amazing! You can have the best view of Parga from the castle. There is also a cafe bar where you can enjoy your drink gazing Parga

Off the main route but well worth the effort. Start at the monastery then climb the 421 steps (yes we counted them) On top you will find the superb monument combined with views that will take your breath away (once you have got it back from climbing the steps)

A great beach, with pine trees up to waves! You can try snorkeling, go to the adjacent beach on the right (north) and at the islet in the middle of the beach. Definitely a go! The road is paved and you should follow the signs after Ammoudia (if you go to the south). Do not use google maps.
8. Valtos Beach

The best beach in Parga. Accessed by water taxi, a good walk or by car. It has everything you may need from a beach. Life Guards to “Luxury Sunbathing”. We tried all the local beach’s & Valtos was by far the best. Lichnos is also very good with a good bar & services also. Sarakiniko is ok, but small & again popular. Whilst Valtos is the largest & most popular it didn’t spoil our time there. Tango Bar was very good for lunch & a beer, as is the Parga Beach Hotel they even serve “Stella Artois” if you fancy a change from Mythos. If you require luxurious sunbathing, then go to the far end on the left as you arrive by water taxi, Cape North West has a great bar area & luxury sun beds with complimentary chilled water & chilled fruit on your arrival.

The beach here is amazing! It is a soft sandy beach - no pebbles or stones to hurt your feet. Really nice and clean. The sea is lovely and clear, it’s very shallow for quite some way out, no sudden drops, making it perfect for the kids. Plenty of sun loungers to hire and all at a reasonable price - we have been paying €5 a day for two beds,an umbrella & 2 drinks.
