User reviews
"The beach located on the northern side of Naxos Island is truly remarkable! The combination of the stunning rock beaches and cliffs juxtaposed against the vast and open blue sea is simply breathtaking. Additionally, there are a plethora of taverns to choose from, including delicious traditional Greek fish taverns that are sure to satisfy any seafood lover's cravings. 🐟🇬🇷🌅"
Nicoletta Neri
"The beach was quite the sight to behold, with its picturesque scenery and charming restaurants right by the water's edge. The only downside was the pesky feline companions lurking around, begging for scraps of your meal. Nevertheless, it was a quaint little slice of Greek paradise that was well worth the stop on my Naxos day tour."
