The boat slips away from Paros as the Aegean flattens into a sheet of light; salt air presses against your face and the deck hums beneath bare feet. Within minutes the shore recedes and the captain points toward a ribbon of turquoise—this is the Blue Lagoon, a shallow basin of fluorescent water that seems to glow from below. Guests jump, snorkel, and drift, the sea daring you to leave the quiet of the boat and float in its warmth.
