Antiparos (;
Oliaros) is a small island in the
southern Aegean, at the heart of the
Cyclades, which is less than one nautical mile (1.9 km) from
Paros, the port to which it is connected with a local ferry. Saliagos island is the most ancient settlement in the Cyclades, and
Despotiko, an uninhabited island in the southwest of Antiparos, is a place of great archaeological importance.
