Kastri (Greek: Καστρί) is a village and a community of the Parga municipality. Before the 2011 local government reform it was part of the municipality of Fanari, of which it was a municipal district. The 2011 census recorded 277 inhabitants in the village. The community of Kastri covers an area of 4.476 km2.
The village stands on a plain from where Acheron passes through. It is on the northern part of the Preveza regional unit in a distance of almost 47km from Preveza.
The ruins of an acropolis can be seen on a hill near Kastri, which give the village its name, meaning "castle". These are likely to be the remains of the ancient city Pandosia.
