New Paros’ airport: let’s discuss about it!
The FoPA is in favour of the development of the current airport of Paros and Antiparos. The buildings that welcome visitors are wholly unsuitable and insufficient.
Despotiko 2021
Despite the difficult conditions due to the pandemic, the Despotiko excavation and restoration project took place this year. Its realization would not have been possible without the kind sponsorships of AIGEAS AMKE (Thanasis & Marina Martinos), P&A Kanellopoulou Foundation, A.G. Leventis Foundation, Municipality of Antiparos, College Year Athens, Lamda Development, Marion Stasinopoulos and more. For yet another year, the moral and material support of the “Friends of Paros” Association was invalua

Dear Friends
The current pandemic upsets our lives and requires a great effort from all of us to cope with it. The Friends of Paros and Antiparos wish you good health and good luck once again. This health crisis has forced us to change our program for 2019/2020. While some activities have gone well with success as […]

PETER farewell
Dear friends of Peter
Sorry – it took some time to write this.
Above all, because we could not fully believe it. And still do not really understand it. Peter was much too alive to die. But he did – at least as alive as possible. He died on April 23, 2021, clear-headed, aware of his situation, without complaint at three o’clock in the morning at the Health Center in Paros.
Visit to ancient quarries & discussion on 3.7.2021
On Saturday, July 3, at 11.30 am we are organising an introductory meeting of the “Circle of the Ancient Quarries”, which will be preceded at 9.00 am by an optional visit to the ancient quarries. Find the programme and sign-up!
Friends of Paros: “the new Archaeological and Cultural Park in Marathi can start operating in 2022”
It’s three months since the well-attended online meeting organized by the Friends of Paros and Antiparos to rescue and promote the ancient marble quarries, and many small steps have already been taken in this direction.
Follow-up of Paros Airport Extension
The project to transform Paros airport into an international airport seems to be taking shape and recently received the latest approval from the titular minister.
Are seaplanes the solution?
Among the many points of view that are heard for and against the expansion of Paros airport, several people see this expansion as a condition for a better offer of transport serving the island and others consider that it leads inevitably to a reckless kind of “development” and to the destruction of the Cycladic character of the island. The recent plan to create a network of hydroports and 30 seaplane water landing strips in the southern Aegean Sea and 150 across the country has been heralded as a godsend.

The results of the online information meeting
On Tuesday March 16th, the “Friends of Paros and Antiparos” organised an online information meeting on “The protection and promotion of the ancient quarries of Paros and the relevant experiences from other parts of Greece”
An opinion on the Paros airport extension project
We received this text following the publication and diffusion of two relevant texts of the Friends of Paros and Antiparos. We asked our friend, given the length of his text, to make a summary of it in order to feed the public debate, given its qualities. We believe that this public debate is necessary to inform the society of Paros and Antiparos on the issues. It is also necessary for decision-making.
Communication from the FoPA concerning the new airport following statements by the Mayor of Paros, Mr Koveos and the leader of the opposition K. Rokonidas
This project will probably significantly impact the island, its environment, economic and social development, and its physiognomy. Its importance requires the sharing of complete information.
Final sprint for the new airport | Statements by Kovaios and Rokonidas
An article of “Foni tis Parou” where the mayor of Paros, M. Kovaios, intervenes in the consultation initiated by the “Friends of Paros” on the issue of the airport’s expansion.
