Naxos is located in the Cyclades and is the largest of all the islands of the Archipelago. A territory rich in uncontaminated nature, idyllic beaches and history, a combination that attracts every type of traveler. Perfect for families with children, Naxos also has a romantic side for a holiday as a couple or for an adventure with friends.
Naxos beaches are an invitation to idleness or dynamism, its coastlines of soft light sand bathed by a clean sea and intense colors, are perfect for any type of day you decide to spend, you can simply lie down like lizards and fill up on vitamin D, or you can dedicate yourself to the many water sports on offer.
There are many and varied things to do in Naxos, the west dominates the plains with expanses of olive trees and dream beaches, the center of the island is more hilly and with peaks that reach 1000 meters is immersed in a nature that is still almost intact and with villages suspended in time, so what better than treating yourself to walks along the many hiking trails that lead to glimpses with panoramas that will leave even the most chatty in silence? Don’t miss the legendary Portara, an ancient temple dedicated to the God of the Sun Apollo, or the Cave of Zas, a dive into legend.
It is said that Zeus and Dionysus, the God of wine, grew up in Naxos and, having fallen in love with the island, blessed it, making it rich in prosperous vineyards. Even from a culinary point of view, gourmets will have many opportunities to delight their palates. Tradition is always the protagonist and fresh and local products such as cheeses, delicious oil and a good native wine are never lacking.
Naxos awaits you with its timeless charm. Come and experience it and let yourself be conquered!
