We arrived at Naxos port by ferry from Piraeus, and this seemed to be the most common way of transportation to Naxos with several itineraries during the day and especially in the summer. The trip lasted nearly 5 hours. My first impression of the beautiful port town of the Aegean was not... More >
Unfortunately, we didn't tour Naxos much because we stayed for 4 nights only. Huge mistake!! Once we went there, we didn't want to leave, so to avoid the same mistake, better book for more than a week, probably 10 days, unless you don't like sightseeing and you want just to hang out in a beach....

Do surfing and go tours

A week in Naxos was not enough but you get to see the most interesting parts of it. Chora was like the other capitals of Cyclades, I didn't notice any different except for the impressive ancient door at the port. But the rest of the island was gorgeous, with the mountainous villages and the lovely... More >
It was our first time to Naxos (although we had been to other Cyclades islands before) so we decided to rent a car and travel to as many more villages and beaches as we could! As part of Cyclades, Naxos keeps the architecture of the islands and the white/ blue painted houses, along with the small... More >
We have for a long time been visitors to Paros and a friend that lived previously on Naxos persuaded us to visit. We found the scenary on the island exceptional, good beaches to the South West below the Main town, with the villages in the interior very greek. We visited all three kouros and the... More >
If you decide to spend some time on the beaches of the southern part of Naxos, you must go to the long beach of Pirgaki and to the small beach of Agios Georgios, near to the Cedar Forest.
At the eastern end of the sandy track along the beach of Pirgaki, you will find a small tavern, that is a... More >
Naxos is a wonderful island. Naxos town has developed really nicely since we last came in 1990. The shops and restaurants are great, a mix of traditional and modern, with some lovely cafes. The waterfront has a lovely marina and paved area to walk and sit, to enjoy the views of the bay and the... More >
Look for small beaches

I loved the island. Naxos is one of the purest islands in Greece and especially recommended for people who love the true and calm face of Greece, not the awful bars of Mykonos or the insulting visitors of Kos. I loved Naxos because it had what I mean of good Greek vacations: greenery all around,... More >
Next time we travel we will we will make it easier. We spent 24 hours travelling. Even if everything was well organized (the plane, the bus from Athens to Pireaues, the boat and even the transport from the harbour of Naxos to Maragas Camping), it was exhausting to travel for so many hours without a...

We just came back from a week in Naxos and I feel so relaxed! We have visited Naxos many times in summer and have good friends there, but this year we chose to go in springtime. Nature was so wonderful that you could sit and look at it for hours! Plus there were no crowds to spoil your calm.
