Naxos is the largest of the Cyclades islands and, undoubtedly, one of the most beautiful Greek islands!
The island is easily reachable by plane from Athens and by ferry from Athens (Piraeus) and many islands of the Aegean. It may be a short ferry ride away from the super famous Santorini, Paros and Mykonos islands, but Naxos is relatively unknown, staying (so far) under the mainstream radar.
Actually, Naxos is a paradise on earth. Are you ready to discover it?
Despite being relatively low-profile, compared to the neighboring Cycladic islands, Naxos is one of the most enticing destinations in Greece!
It sits in the center of the Cyclades islands group, in the heart of the Aegean sea, and is also the biggest of them Its glorious ancient past and the strong influences of the Venetians and the Franks are responsible for the abundance of ancient sites. The most iconic of them -and the trademark of Naxos- is Portara, the remaining gate of an ancient temple dedicated to the Olympian god Apollo. Apart from its impressive monuments, though, the island boasts a beautiful natural landscape, as it is the greenest of the Cyclades. Imposing mountains, green valleys, beautiful beaches, and rural villages will exalt every nature lover's spirit!
