The island of Naxos is a blend of magic and beauty. The capital is a lovely settlement which has been built around the old capital; the old capital is a real beauty: it is a medieval town surrounded by strong and thick walls were walking is a real pleasure. It is a labyrinth and I have enjoyed loosing myself in. Nether disapointed. I found a little festival in the Venetian castle that was playing traditional music and dances fron Naxos. It was realy nice and interesting.
For a good visit of the island you will need to rent a car or a motorbike (plenty of rental agencies on the island) because Naxos is a big and mountainous island and the best beaches are far away from the town center. We rented a car so we could move at our ease and visit the lovely mountain villages.
I have visited many islands in Greece and for me Naxos is a paradise on earth. The people are realy helpful and always smile at you.
