Naxos for ever
Date: Mar 06, 2006
Naxos Review:
Nationality: Norwegian
Age: 50
The trip: We went by plane to Santorini and then took the ferry to Naxos. The really was nice. It was our first approach with the Greek sea and sun!
Reasons for going to Naxos: It was not the first time we went to Naxos in Greece. We have been there before. We liked it so much that we decided to celebrate my 50th anniversary there.
Idea before arriving: The last time we were on Naxos Island we thought only staying for a few days but we liked it so much that we spent almost all our holidays there.
Expectations and opinions: Yes, it met once again our expactations. It is really a lovely place. It is less touristy and organised than the other islands (Paros, Mykonos, Santorini) and that is all the charm about it. It is a large island so it gives many different choices of excursions. The mountainous villaged are charming and the beaches are really amazing. Especially the one of Plaka.
Favorite thing about Naxos: The beaches of course, the food (Irena restaurant is incredible) and the music rebetica that we have discovered. The main town is also a jewel. There is also someting really great that someone should not miss. There is a little garden (near one of the main doors of kastro) in the area of Kastro were a small summer festtival takes place. From folkloric Naxian music to violin classicals.
There are also many places were you can try windsurfing.
Negative opinion: No negative opinion.
Recommendations: For familly people and for who like silence.
We will definitely go back to Naxos. I am thinking of buying a house on a Greek Island. Maybe Naxos will be "our" destination.
