About Naxos
Located in the center of Cyclades, Naxos is a wonderful island with long sandy beaches and interesting sightseeing. Holidays in Naxos are particularly perfect for families or romantic couples. The western side of the island is the most developed tourist-wise and has long sandy beaches lined up with seaside hotels, restaurants, and watersports centers. The eastern side is more secluded and non-organized. A drive around the center of the island brings visitors to traditional villages and interesting historical sites. Many hiking trails also cross the island and lead to secluded spots, like the peak of Mount Zas, the tallest mountain in the Cyclades. Apart from hiking, Naxos is also a great island for windsurfing and kitesurfing as the wind conditions on the islands are perfect for that.
