About Us

The Captain's Restaurant is located at a prominent position in the center of Valtos beach. Valtos, whose official name is Chrysogiali, is the most organized beach of Parga and one of the most popular on the West Coast. As you enjoy your meal, coffee or drink at the restaurant, you face the Venetian Castle of Parga eastwards and the Byzantine Monastery of Vlacherna in the West, against the backdrop of the clear blue waters of the Ionian Sea. If you are lucky and the atmosphere is clear during your visit, under the guidance of The Captain's grandsons you will notice on the horizon the mountains of Lefkas, Kefalonia & part of Ithaka.

The Captain's Restaurant is a family run business that was founded at 1967, when it was started as a "cook house". Back at that time there was no tourism in the wider area and the Captain’s was the only building in front of Valtos beach. In particular, all the land on the coastline were olive groves, which the natives despised as the gulls ate the olives. The Captain, who was a fisherman, decided to use his own premises, so his wife could cook his daily fish for the locals. With the same principles and values since then, using primarily pure raw materials from the wider region, we continue to develop three-generation recipes, offering high quality to its true value.
