Why go to the Caribbean when we have the beautiful beaches of Greece so close to us in Europe? Plaka beach is our favorite in Naxos, along with Agia Anna beach. The beach is incredibly long, taking about 45-60 minutes to walk its entire length, and has fine to grainy white sand. On this side of the island, the wind is much calmer compared to the southern part. From Agia Anna to halfway down the beach, there are some restaurants on the back street with beach chairs. Beyond that, the beach becomes more natural with occasional hotels and restaurants. We came across 3 or 4 nudist areas along the beach, making it quite inclusive. I highly recommend taking the bus to get there, as a round trip ticket costs less than 5€, while renting a car will set you back at least 50€ per day, not to mention the expensive petrol at 2€ per liter. The last bus drops you off at approximately halfway down the beach.
This stunning beach is located to the south of Naxos town and boasts an impressive stretch of sand. A bike ride of just 30 minutes is well worth the effort to reach this idyllic spot.
This beach is absolutely stunning and my personal favorite on Naxos due to the gorgeous sand and sea. However, it can be quite windy for sunbathing compared to other beaches. It stretches for about 1km and is located right after the popular Plaka beach, making it a hotspot for windsurfers. Although we walked here from Agios Prokopios (which was quite a long walk), there is a dirt road for access and apparently an asphalt road that connects to Naxos Town, which is about 10km away. Walking along the beaches on either side is a fantastic experience and the scenery is breathtaking. During our visit in early May, which was the start of the season, it was peaceful and quiet.
The beach is a true gem, especially for being located so close to the town center and port. The vibrant atmosphere is amplified by the array of bars, restaurants, and shops that line the shore. During our visit in May, the beach was peaceful and serene, as it was the beginning of the season. The beach is expansive, boasting a lengthy stretch of yellow sand that is perfect for leisurely walks or sunbathing. For those who prefer to stroll, the pavement that runs parallel to the beach is an ideal choice. Additionally, there are numerous seating areas available along the top of the beach-front, providing ample opportunities to take in the stunning scenery.
The beach is a stunning and secluded gem! It is tucked away behind the Cedar Forest of Agia Anna and can be reached via the wooden path that surrounds the beach of Maragas. This hidden spot offers privacy, making it a popular choice for nudists. The deep waters boast incredible colors, and the fine sand leads to picturesque rocks, creating a breathtaking landscape for enjoying a beautiful sunset.
