Traveller notes on Paros in September
Notes from nearby Santorini (80 km away)
Paros doesn't have its own notes for September yet — these are about Santorini, close enough to share the season.
Regulars on the Santorini forum split September in two: the first half still runs on August's crowds and prices, and the back half — after most of Europe has gone home — is where the island actually loosens up, with a warm sea and a lot less queueing for the Oia sunset.
Other months in Paros
Paros's forum calls August meltemi season, the northerly wind blowing most days at varying strength — a mixed blessing that keeps the island cooler than the mainland but can rough up some beaches. Regulars flag August as the single busiest month in the Cyclades, recommending advance booking, and note the island has enough sheltered coves that finding calm water is usually possible even on a windy day.
