the marina
Porto Naoussa Marina has established its place on the map, ready to welcome yachts from 8 to 20 metres. Set in Naoussa on the northern coast of Paros, one of the most beloved destinations in the heart of the Cyclades, the marina offers short and long-term berthing for up to 60 yachts.
From here, the Aegean opens in every direction. The smaller, quieter islands of Iraklia, Koufonisia, Keros and Delos lie within easy reach, alongside larger neighbours such as Naxos, Milos, Polyegos and Amorgos. For those wanting to sail further, the Dodecanese islands of Astypalea, Kalymnos and beyond are within comfortable cruising distance.
Set sail from Porto Naoussa and experience the Aegean Archipelago at its finest.
History
The small fishing harbour of Naoussa began as a simple shelter for the village's fishing boats, known to locals as Mandraki. Later, the breakwater on the harbour's western side was extended, offering passing sailing vessels protection from the strong Aegean winds and access to essential supplies. Today, Porto Naoussa carries this maritime heritage into a new chapter, combining the character of a traditional Cycladic harbour with the facilities of a modern Mediterranean marina.
“In the beginning was” the small enclosed fishing harbour of Naoussa, which locals once called Mandraki. From the 1970s onwards, growing berthing needs and the demand to protect fishing and other vessels led to the expansion of the harbour along the village's western seafront, in parallel with the extension of the windward breakwater. During the 2000s, a shelter for visiting yachts was designed and built at the Psariana site, extending south-westwards from the fishing harbour, with the aim of offering protection and modern berthing services to leisure craft. Today, Porto Naoussa draws on this heritage to open a new chapter in yachting hospitality — combining the character of a traditional Cycladic harbour with the facilities of a modern Cycladic marina.
Our Vision
Porto Naoussa enters the world of yacht berthing at a moment when minimising our negative impact on the environment has never been more important. Exploring the sea by boat can leave a remarkably light footprint, especially when every environmental safeguard is respected. By pairing modern, well-organised services with strict adherence to port and environmental protection standards, Porto Naoussa ensures its own smooth operation while creating a framework that helps everyone involved adapt to and uphold those same standards.
This marks the first time the marina has operated in an organised manner within the recreational boating sector. Its mission is to upgrade facilities that lay dormant for many years, bringing them back to life to offer competitive, high-quality services to visiting yachts. Administered by Paros Park Municipal S.A., Porto Naoussa is a public asset run to professional, commercial standards, operating on a fully self-financing basis that covers the organisation, operation and maintenance of its facilities through its own revenue.
