Reviews of Alíki

Aliki is a peninsula, south of Thesos on the island of Paros. It is made up of ancient marble quarries.

My suggestion:
If you don't like crowds of tourists, avoid high season!
Summary:

What I like best about Aliki is that it has hidden treasures.

Indeed, the beaches are beautiful, as they are almost everywhere in the Cyclades. The three beaches in the town have crystal clear water which is perfect for snorkelling. They also have gently sloping shores which is important for families with children.

On the other side of the village, there are acheological remains; and at the end of the peninsula, there are ancient marble quarries giving the place a special atmosphere. It is quite difficult to imagine how these worked but I found it interesting.

From the port of Aliki there are many boat trips, which I would strongly recommend, especially in low season. The tour reps are very nice and the places you visit are breathtaking (and you can swim there!).
