Paralio Astros, the amphitheatric coastal village of Arcadia with its picturesque alleys and traditional tile-roofed houses, intensively resembles a Greek Island. Paralio Astros is the port of the historic Astros of Kynouria, where the 2nd National Assembly was convened in April 1823. At the port of Paralio Astros, you can see tourist boats, fishing boats and high-speed boats, while tourist hotels, cottages, restaurants and cafés spread around them. The medieval fortress, which looms at the top of the hill of Paralio Astros, offers a wonderful view of the surrounding area and olive grove. The Church of the Annunciation, the picturesque lighthouse and the Chapel of Prophet Elias, as well as the statue of the mermaid near the outdoor theater at the port, are the most important sights of Paralio Astros. The trip to the wider area of Paralio Astros is exciting: the sandy beach of Atsingangos, the beach of Vervena, the lagoon of Moustos and the beach of Saint Andreas make up a special corner in Arcadia, where sea and wind become one!
